The later seventeenth and eighteenth centuries have been acclaimed
as the classic period of artillery fortification. This was an era
when fortresses and fortress systems shaped the calculations of
strategists and statesmen, and often dictated the course of
campaigns. The age was one of almost constant conflict and this
book, originally published in 1985, explores the influence of the
fortress in the dynastic wars of Bourbon, Habsburg and
Hohenzollern, the contest for influence in the Baltic, the last
crusades of the West against the Turks, and in the peculiar
conditions of colonial campaigning and the War of the American
Independence.
