The story of Venice is, to some extent, separate from that of the
rest of Europe. The same could be said of the city's military
history and organisation. Early in the 9th century the Venetians
defeated Pepin the Frank's attempts to overawe them, and they
remained, at least in theory, subject to Byzantium. Gradually,
however, Venice drifted into independence; and subsequently carved
out its own empire at the expense of its former Byzantine masters.
The Venetians were soon famous for their roving and warlike spirit,
keen business acumen and pride. This book explores the remarkable
history of the city and its army from 1200 up until 1670.
