Through these exciting projects, the colorful history of siege warfare comes to life -- the stories of Alexander the Great and the battle of Tyre; Saladin, Richard the Lionheart, and the Third Crusade; pirate-turned-soldier John Crabbe and his ship-mounted catapults; and Edward I of England and his battle against the Scots at Stirling Castle. For the legions of Tolkien fans, budding backyard warriors, and engineering wizards, this book is a must-have.CatapultHistoryBallistaHistoryCatapultDesign and constructionBallistaDesign and constructionCatapultHistory.BallistaHistory.CatapultDesign and construction.BallistaDesign and construction.623.4/41Gurstelle William935267MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816066403321The art of the catapult4022473UNINA
