The Middle Ages are commonly divided into three periods - the early
Middle Ages, the high or central Middle Ages, and the late Middle
Ages. Each period was marked by its own crises and wars, and the
weapons and fighters reflected the technological and other
advancements being made. This book is a richly illustrated history
of warfare in Western Europe during those years. Part One, the
early Middle Ages, covers the late Romans, the Germanic invaders
and Byzantines, the Franks, the Vikings and Hungarians, and the
Anglo-Saxons and Normans in England. Part Two, the high or central
Middle Ages, considers the feudal system, knights and chivalry,
knights at war, infantrymen, land warfare, siege and naval warfare,
crusades in Palestine, templars and hospitalers, the Reconquista in
Spain, and the Teutonic knights. Part Three, the late Middle Ages,
discusses the evolution of new types of armour and weapons, the
Hundred Years' War, mercenaries, and firearms.
