About this product

Product Information

By 1326, gunpowder artillery had arrived in Europe. These first, arrow-firing cannons were perfectly serviceable, but small and simple. Little more than a century later, in 1453 the mighty walls of Constantinople were being battered down by gunpowder weapons, and in 1494 Charles VIII launched the Italian Wars, bringing a train of mobile artillery on campaign for the first time. This was the era of great, prestigious siege guns, such as Mons Meg and the Great Turkish Bombard, but it also saw increasingly effective smaller guns being used at sea and on the battlefield. Jonathan Davies is a historian with long experience of building and firing replica medieval cannons and siege weapons. In this fascinating book he draws on this knowledge to explain the uses and effectiveness of various types of cannon in combat, as well as the founding techniques employed in the manufacture of medieval guns. Using meticulous original artwork and rigorous analysis throughout, he assesses the extent to which medieval warfare was really changed with the advent of the cannon. Book jacket.
