This book reveals why.In this accessible, concise guide, Richard Bonney explains one of the first wars where contemporaries stressed the importance of atrocities, the horrors of the fighting and also the sufferings of the civilian population.The Thirty Years' War remains a conflict of key importance in the history of the development of warfare and the 'military revolution'.
