Historia2 - Michael F. Pavkovic, Christer Jorgensen, Rob S. Rice -... - AD 1763 Equipment, Combat Skills, and Tactics 2006.jpg

When gunpowder replaced steel as the weapon of choice, soldiers had to adapt or die. In Fighting Techniques of the Early Modern World, five military experts explore the tactics and strategy required to win battles with the technology available, and describe how the development of new weapons changed the face of warfare. Using specially-commissioned color and black and white artworks to illustrate the battles, equipment and tactics of the era, Fighting Techniques of the Early Modern World shows in detail the methods by which armies gained and lost ascendency on the battlefield.

Willie Thompson - What Happened to History (2000).jpg

This original study explores the development of the postmodern turn in history, brought on by the social, political and cultural changes of the 1970s and 1980s. Challenging notions of certainty and objectivity, postmodernism has questioned traditional models and methods in studying history. A timely intervention in an increasingly contentious area, this book evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of postmodern history. Beginning with a brief account of historiography as an academic discipline, with its origins in the 'scientific historiography' of the nineteenth century, Willie Thompson charts the growth and development of the historical method in the twentieth century. He examines the impact of Marxist historiography, particularly in Britain and the United States, and the emergence of new approaches to history exemplified by the work of E.P. Thompson and others. In addition, Thompson assesses the impact of feminist, black and minority history.

Donald R. Prothero - Bringing Fossils To Life; An Introduction To Paleobiology (2004).jpg

This is the first text to combine both paleontology and paleobiology. Traditional textbooks treat these separately, despite the recent trend to combine them in teaching. It bridges the gap between purely theoretical paleobiology and purely descriptive invertebrate paleontology books. The text is targeted at undergraduate geology and biology majors, with the emphasis on organisms, rather than dead objects to be described and catalogued. Current ideas from modern biology, ecology, population genetics, and many other concepts will be applied to the study of the fossil record.

Paula J. Byrne - Criminal Law and Colonial Subje ct; New South Wales, 1810-1830 (1993).jpg

This book explores the relationship of a colonial people with English law and looks at the way in which the practice of law developed among the ordinary population. Paula Jane Byrne traces the boundaries among property, sexuality and violence, drawing from court records, dispositions and proceedings. She asks: What did ordinary people understand by guilt, suspicion, evidence and the term "offense"? She illuminates the values and beliefs of the emerging colonial consciousness and the complexity of power relations in the colony. The book reconstructs the legal process with great tetail and richness and is able to evoke the everyday lives of people in the colonial NSW.

Barry Cunliffe - The Ancient Celts (2000).jpg

The archetypal 'barbarians from the north', the Celts were feared for their ferocity in battle and admired as skilled craftsmen. For two and half thousand years the Celts have continued to fascinate all who have come into contact with them. "The Ancient Celts" presents an absorbing account of the tribes whose origins and identity still provoke heated debate. Exploring the archaeological reality of the Iron Age inhabitants of barbarian Europe, Professor Cunliffe traces the emergence of chiefdoms, patterns of expansion and migration, and the development of Celtic ethnicity and identity.
Each generation, the British scholar Jacquetta Hawkes has observed, chooses the archaeology that best suits its current ideology. For a century beginning in the late 1800s, archaeologists depicted the Celts as an inordinately brave and poetic tribal people who battled their way across the Eurasian world without being unduly aggressive--in the manner, that is, of good colonialists. Today some archaeologists are more inclined to consider the Celts as a people who kept ethnic unity alive across a huge span of territory and time, a view that may offer comfort in a time when, as Oxford University professor Barry Cunliffe writes, "ethnic divisions are becoming a painful and disturbing reality." Cunliffe himself takes the view that the Celts were at once alike and diverse, which led to the formation of many different Celtic cultures from the Black Sea to Ireland. This heavily illustrated, well-written book tells their story well, from the beginnings of Celtic culture in the distant Indo-European past to the height of Celtic power in the third century A.D.

Ernest Gellner - Muslim Society (1981).jpg

Of all the great world religions, Islam appears to have the most powerful political appeal in the twentieth century. It sustains some severely traditional and conservative regimes, but it is also capable of generating intense revolutionary ardour and of blending with extreme social radicalism. As an agent of political mobilisation, it seems to be overtaking Marxism, arid surpassing all other religions. The present book seeks the roots of this situation in the past. The traditional Muslim society of the arid zone has, in the past, displayed remarkable stability and homogeneity, despite great political fragmentation, and the absence of a centralised religious hierarchy. The book explores the mechanisms which have contributed to this result - a civilisation in which (in the main) weak states co-existed with a strong culture, which had a powerful hold over the populations under its sway.

Winston Churchill - The Gathering Storm (1986).jpeg

Winston Churchill was not only a statesman and leader of historic proportions, he also possessed substantial literary talents. These two factors combine to make The Gathering Storm a unique work. The first volume of Churchill's memoirs, this selection is broken into two parts. The first, "From War to War," consists of Churchill's critical observations on the settlement of World War I and its place in the causes of the Second World War. The second volume contains letters and memoranda from the British government--of which Churchill was part--as the country plunged unprepared into war. This stands as the best of history: written as it was made, by the man who made it.

Historia2 - Christopher Duffy - Siege Warfare Vol. 2 The Fortress ...e Age of Vauban and Frederick the Great 1660-1789 1985.jpg

Christopher Duffy read history at Balliol College, Oxford and joined the staff of the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst in 1961, becoming Senior Lecturer in the Department of War Studies and International Affairs. He was Secretary-General of the British Commission for Military History, a Vice-President of the Military History Society of Ireland, and a member of the Fortress Study Group. After many years at Sandhurst he went on to become Research Professor in War in History at the Institute for the Study of War and Society at De Montfort University before he retired from academic life, but fortunately not writing. He wrote two very popular books for the Napoleonic period on the battles of Austerlitz and Borodino. Studies at Sandhurst were developed into excellent books like Red Storm over the Reich for the World War Two period. His interest in fortifications led to a general survey, Fire & Stone, the Science of Fortress Warfare 1660-1860, as well as two more detailed books, Siege Warfare, The Fortress in the Early Modern World 1494-1660, and The Fortress in the Age of Vauban and Frederick the Great, 1660-1789. It is our hope that one day he have time to do another detailed study in fortress warfare to complete the trilogy.

While this would be an impressive collection of work, Christopher Duffy's preferred field has always been Eighteenth Century Warfare. He began with a life of Field Marshal Browne, called Wild Goose and Eagle, and went on to cover the armies of Frederick the Great and Maria Theresa. Russia got its turn with Russia's Military Way to the West: Origins and Nature of Russian Military Power 1700-1800, while the actual campaigns of Frederick were surveyed in Frederick the Great: A Military Life.

Christopher Duffy's first book for us was to go back and re-examine the Prussian Army in The Army of Fredrick the Great, 2nd Edition. The Emperor's Press had been attracted to his work by his ability to handle very detailed subjects while never losing sight of the bigger picture, all in a most readable style. He had to teach us a great deal of how to study history, especially the 18th Century.

However is next book for us was a continuation of his Russian work, Eagles over the Alps, Suvorov in Italy and Switzerland 1799. The staff here enjoyed immensely following Suvorov's trek over Alpine Passes on large scale maps, but on visiting the Panixer Pass found it much more daunting to do it over the actual ground. Christopher Duffy then went on to update his work on the army of Maria Theresa in Instrument of War, Volume 1 of The Austrian Army in the Seven Years War, a project we did jointly with the Austrian Army Museum (Heeresgeschichtliches Museum) in Vienna. Our rewards for this was a book we had always wanted to do, a more detailed look (but still very readable) at one history's greatest campaigns. The result was Prussia's Glory: Rossbach and Leuthen 1757, of which we are immensely proud. Another recent book by Christopher Duffy, sadly by another publisher, was 1745, a fresh look at the Jacobite campaign of 1745-1746.

Robert Mills - Suspended Animation; Pain, Pleasure and Punishment in Medieval Culture (2006).jpg

When Marsellus in the film Pulp Fiction asserts, "I'm gonna git medieval on your ass," we know that he is about to bring down a fierce and exacting punishment. Yet is the violence of the Middle Ages that far removed from our modern society? Suspended Animation argues that not only is the stereotype of uncontrolled violence in the Middle Ages historically misleading, the gulf between modern society and the medieval era is not as immense as we might think. In fact, both medievals and moderns live within a social tension of "suspended animation" engendered by images and acts of violence.

Just as in medieval times, Robert Mills argues, it is the threat of violence—not the reality—that continues to structure our lives. To illustrate this "aesthetics of suspense," Mills draws on extensive and disturbing examples from medieval iconography, contemporary philosophy, and even pornography, ranging from the vivid depictions of Hell in Tuscan frescoes to Billie Holiday's famously wrenching song "Strange Fruit". Mills reveals how these uncomfortable images and texts expose a modern self-deception, and he further explores how medieval images evoked a pleasure revealingly close to that found in modern depictions of sexuality. Suspended Animation also makes a fresh contribution to theoretical debates on pre-modern gender and sexuality. Mills's comprehensive analysis demonstrates that—as wartime prisoner abuse incidents at Abu Ghraib and Guantánamo Bay have recently indicated—our notions of ourselves as not-medieval (that is, civilized) not only fail to prepare us for modern torture and warfare but also lead us into complicity with self-proclaimed moral and civic leaders.

Whether considering a medieval painting of a Christian martyr or the immense popularity of grotesque historical tourist attractions such as the London Dungeons, Suspended Animation argues that images of death and violence are as pervasive today as they were in the Middle Ages, serving as potent reminders of the link between the modern and the medieval era.

Jonathan Sawday - Engines of the Imagination; Rena issance culture and the rise of the machine (2007).jpg

At what point did machines and technology begin to have an impact on the cultural consciousness and imagination of Europe? How was this reflected through the art and literature of the time? Was technology a sign of the fall of humanity from its original state of innocence or a sign of human progress and mastery over the natural world? In his characteristically lucid and captivating style, Jonathan Sawday investigates these questions and more by engaging with the poetry, philosophy, art, and engineering of the period to find the lost world of the machine in the pre-industrial culture of the European Renaissance.

The aesthetic and intellectual dimension of these machines appealed to familiar figures such as Shakespeare, Francis Bacon, Montaigne, and Leonardo da Vinci as well as to a host of lesser known writers and artists in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. This intellectual engagement with machines in the European Renaissance gave rise to new attitudes towards gender, work and labour, and even fostered the new sciences of artificial life and reason which would be pursued by figures such as Descartes, Hobbes, and Leibniz in the seventeenth century.

Writers, philosophers and artists had mixed and often conflicting reactions to technology, reflecting a paradoxical attitude between modern progress and traditional values. Underpinning the enthusiastic creation of a machine-driven world, then, were stories of loss and catastrophe. These contradictory attitudes are part of the legacy of the European Renaissance, just as much as the plays of Shakespeare or the poetry of John Milton. And this historical legacy helps to explain many of our own attitudes towards the technology that surrounds us, sustains us, and sometimes perplexes us in the modern world.
