A detailed illustrated study of the armies of England, Scotland, Ireland, the United Provinces and the Spanish Netherlands in the long sixteenth century. Ian Heath examines organisation, tactics, dress and weapons across the period 1487–1609, covering the military forces of the Tudor kingdoms and the wars of the Low Countries in a format especially useful to historians, collectors, modellers and reenactors.
The book includes a substantial range of line drawings and diagrams, with particular attention paid to troop types, flags, firearms, artillery and battlefield practice. As the first volume in the Armies of the Sixteenth Century series, it provides a strong reference point for late medieval and early modern warfare in the British Isles and the Spanish-Netherlands sphere.
