Byzantine Armies 886-1118 КНИГИ ;ВОЕННАЯ ИСТОРИЯ Byzantine Armies 886-1118 (Men-at-arms 89)ByIan Heath, Angus McBridePublisher:Os Publishing1993 48PagesISBN: 0850453062, 0855323478PDF17 MBThe Byzantines had a remarkably sophisticated approach to politics and military strategy. Unlike most of their contemporaries, they learnt very early in their history that winning a battle did not necessarily win a war, and they frequently bought off their enemies with treaties and bribes rather than squander men and matйriel in potentially fruitless campaigns. The Byzantine army of the 10th and early 11th centuries, at the height of its power and efficiency, was the best-organised, best-trained, best-equipped and highest-paid in the known world. This splendid book by Ian Heath examines the Byzantine Armies from 886-1118, including the lusty, hard-fighting, hard-drinking 'barbarian' Varangian guard. SharingmatrixDepositfiles 51
