It is therefore conversant with an enormous variety of subjects: Strategy and Tactics are but two of the more important of its branches. Besides dealing with discipline, organization, and armament, it is bound to investigate every means which can be adapted to increase the physical or moral efficiency of an army.Contents: The Transition from Roman to Mediæval Forms in War - A.D. 378-582.The Early Middle Ages - A.D. 476-1066-81.The Byzantines and their Enemies - A.D. 582-1071.The Supremacy of Feudal Cavalry - A.D. 1066-1346.The Swiss - A.D. 1315-1515.The English and their Enemies - A.D. 1272-1485.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Charles Oman

Charles William Chadwick Oman foi um historiador militar britânico do início do século XX. As suas reconstruções das batalhas medievais a partir de relatos fragmentários foram pioneiras, num estilo que é uma mistura revigorante de rigor histórico e tensão narrativa.
Nasceu na Índia em janeiro de 1860, filho de um fazendeiro britânico, e formou-se na Universidade de Oxford, onde estudou com William Stubbs. Em 1881 foi eleito para uma bolsa de estudos na All Souls College, onde permaneceria pelo resto da sua carreira.
Tornou-se membro honorário da New College em 1936 e recebeu os títulos honoríficos de Doctor of Civil Law (Oxford, 1926) e de Doctor of Law (Edimburgo, 1911, e Cambridge, 1927).
Morreu em Oxford, em junho de 1946.
