- catalog abstract ""The start of the Italian Wars in 1494, subsequently seen as the onset of 'modern warfare', provides the starting point for this impressive survey of European warfare. In addition to conflict in early modern Europe, this book covers trans-oceanic expansion which led to interaction with extra-European forms of military might. Jeremy Black looks at technological aspects of war as well as social and political developments and consequences during this key period of military history. This sharp and compact analysis contextualises European developments, as well as establishing the global significance of events in Europe." "Black departs from recent work on military history in this period in giving due weight to the operational character and military dynamic of war alongside the social context. This text, handling a long chronological period with a broad geographical range, not only offers an excellent summary of early-modern European warfare, but is a thought-provoking survey that will interest anyone studying this period of military history."--Jacket.".
