Download or read book The Vauban Fortifications of France written by Paddy Griffith and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-20 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vauban was the foremost military engineer of France, not only during his lifetime, but also throughout the 18th century when his legacy and methods remained in place almost unchanged. Indeed, his expertise and experience in the construction, defence, and attack of fortresses is unrivalled by any of his contemporaries, of any nationality. In all three of those fields he was a significant innovator and prolific exponent, having planned approximately 160 major defensive projects and directed over 50 sieges. This book provides not only a modern listing of his varied interventions and their fates, but also a wide-ranging discussion of just how and why they pushed forward the international boundaries of the arts of fortification.

Download or read book European Clocks in the J. Paul Getty Museum written by Gillian Wilson and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Among the finest examples of European craftsmanship are the clocks produced for the luxury trade in the eighteenth century. The J. Paul Getty Museum is fortunate to have in its decorative arts collection twenty clocks dating from around 1680 to 1798: eighteen produced in France and two in Germany. They demonstrate the extraordinary workmanship that went into both the design and execution of the cases and the intricate movements by which the clocks operated. In this handsome volume, each clock is pictured and discussed in detail, and each movement diagrammed and described. In addition, biographies of the clockmakers and enamelers are included, as are indexes of the names of the makers, previous owners, and locations.

This book tells the complete story of Vauban's exceptional career, placing him within the framework of Louis XIV's reign and revealing his lasting influences in France and other nations. With the aid of numerous detailed drawings, 17th century bastioned fortification, artillery, and seige warfare are described in detail. Vauban's fortifications that are still standing today are particularly highlighted.

This book was released on 1993 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An epic drama with a host of actors, Amerindians, Vikings, Basques, French, English . Seven centuries of stirring adventure played out both at sea and on a continent whose vastness beggared the imagination of the Europeans who had come here. A common destiny pursued at Versailles, Quebec, Louisburg, Boston and Niagara.The author, who is Chief Curator of Historic Sites with the Canadian Parks Service, drew much of his inspiration from elements of the material culture, forts and barracks, uniforms, weapons and archeological remains to bring military operations in North America to life and foster a better understanding of how they were conducted. He devotes much of his book to the daily routine of soldiers and officers in New France and the often-misunderstood role that they played, not only in developing our society, but also in revolutionizing military tactics. It is a history book, reference work and art book all in one."
