This book describes the role and organization of the land forces of
a renaissance state over a long period. It thus provides a model
against which the military development of other countries can be
measured in terms of the composition, control and cost of armies.
Above all, it redresses the imbalance whereby only the naval forces
of Venice have been studied seriously. It is thus an essential
contribution to an understanding of the extension and maintenance
of an empire by land and sea, and of the strength in troops and
fortifications that preserved Venice as the one truly independent
state in sixteenth-century Italy. It also adds significantly to an
understanding of the relationship between Venice and the republic's
subject territories.
