Bücher von Geoffrey (Ohio State University) Parker

The publication of The Army of Flanders and the Spanish Road in 1972 marked the birth of the 'new military history', and has been constantly cited since its first publication. This revised second edition includes some new sources and updates some references but otherwise remains faithful to the original version.

This is a new edition of Geoffrey Parker's much-admired illustrated account of how the West, so small and so deficient in natural resources in 1500, had by 1800 come to control over one-third of the world.
