A detailed study of Dutch military engineers and the development of fortification systems during the second phase of the Eighty Years’ War between 1605 and 1648. Frans Westra examines the evolution of military engineering within the Dutch Republic, the individuals responsible for the design and construction of defensive works, and the increasing sophistication of fortification methods during a transformative period in European warfare. Richly illustrated with plans, maps and historical material, this volume provides an important reference for students and enthusiasts of military architecture and early modern military history.
