More than three and a half centuries have passed since the Peace of
Westphalia ended the Thirty Years' War (1618-48); but this most
devastating of wars in the early modern period continues to capture
the imagination of readers: this book reveals why. It was one of
the first wars where contemporaries stressed the importance of
atrocities, the horrors of the fighting and also the sufferings of
the civilian population. The Thirty Years' War remains a conflict
of key importance in the history of the development of warfare and
the 'military revolution'. It marked a turning point in the extent
to which states would involve themselves in large-scale military
conflicts for the sake of religious and constitutional issues in
addition to their normal strategic concerns.
