内容説明

The great European conflict known as the Thirty Years War was only the final phase of a war in the Netherlands which was to last 80 years. In the course of this the Dutch rose up successfully against their Spanish rulers and established a Republic in the early 16th century which was the envy of its contemporaries. This volume brings together papers by 11 leading military historians from the Netherlands who discuss the processes by which the Dutch organised and financed the military apparatus which was eventually to defeat the leading land and maritime power of their day, and to maintain the position of Holland as a world power until well into the 18th century. Articles cover military matters such as changes in strategy and tactics and issues such as the financing of the war, effort, the navy, privateering and the arms trade. The series History of Warfare presents the latest research on all aspects of military history. Publications in the series will examine technology, strategy, logistics, and social development related to warfare in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East from ancient times until early nineteenth century. The series will accept monographs, collections of essays, conference proceedings, and translations of military texts. The series plans to publish two volumes each year, with the first offerings appearing in 1997. Managing Editors: Theresa Vann, (Hill Monastic Manuscript Library, Minnesota) has written on medieval Spain, the medieval military orders and women's history. Paul Chevedden, (Virginia Military Institute) is the world's expert on the trebuchet (but also on artillery and fortifications in the Islamic world).
