European warfare in a global context, 1660-1815

"European Warfare in a Global Context, 1660-1815 is a history of warfare, wars and the armed forces of Europe from the military revolution of the mid-seventeenth century to the Napoleonic era. Covering conflicts right through the period, Jeremy Black takes a revisionist approach to eighteenth-century warfare." "Black also takes a global approach to this study of warfare. This approach is comparative, in the sense of considering Western developments alongside those elsewhere, but it also emphasises conflict between Western and non-Western powers. This approach reframes developments within the West, but also offers a shift in focus away from the standard narrative of warfare at this time, making European Warfare in a Global Context, 1660-1815 an essential read for students of the period."--BOOK JACKET.
