Название: Don Troiani's Soldiers in America 1754-1865. Art by Don Troiani Автор(ы): James L. Kochan, Earl J. Coates, Don Troiani (Illustrator) Издательство: Stackpole Books Год: 1998 ISBN: 0811705196 Страниц: 257 Язык: English Формат: PDF HQ Размер: 141 MB
This sweeping tour through America's military past provides a fascinating glimpse into the life of the soldier of the colonial wars, the American Revolution, the War of 1812, the Mexican War, and the Civil War. Supporting nearly 200 photos of rare equipment and uniforms is text by two leading artifact experts that analyzes and evaluates the arms and accoutrements of the different periods, using firsthand accounts to describe military fashion in Europe and America. How regulations were decided upon - and how they often were ignored - is illustrated in narrative and correspondence. Of course, this new book also features Troiani's meticulously crafted full-color scenes of grand action and great characters, including Bushy Run, George Washington, the Battle of Cowpens, Stonewall Jackson, Emmitsburg Road, and Hampton's Dues, as well as his famously detailed figures, from a Shawnee warrior to the Richmond Howitzers. |

Название: Corvette La Creole 1827 Автор(ы): Jean Boudriot Издательство: Jean Boudriot Серия: Historique de la Corvette 1650-1850 Год: 1990 Страниц: 192 Язык: French Формат: PDF Размер: 207 MB
The corvette takes its place in our navy only beginning in 1696 when it is referred to as a "corvette or long bark." It appears in annual inventories until 1746 when the term "long bark" falls off and only the name "corvette"is retained. We felt it was important to choose a distinctive example of this type of ship in our navy during the Restoration. Hence the choice of the Creole, whose celebrity is heightened by the role she played in San Juan de Ulloa, Mexico, in 1838, under the command of the young prince de Joinville. |

Название: Galleons and Galleys Автор(ы): John F. Guilmartin, Jr. Издательство: Cassell & Co. Серия: Military History - Medieval, Early Modern Год: 2002 ISBN: 0-304-35263-2 Страниц: 226 Язык: English Формат: PDF OCR Размер: 93 MB
The turn of the 16th century saw the start of a revolution in sea warfare--one long in the making but, once begun, remarkably swift. The driving force: gunpowder. The principal agents: galleys (long, low boats propelled principally by oars) and galleons (heavy, square rigged sailing ships). Suddenly, Europe, formerly on a technological par with India and China, dominated the waters. They crossed the Atlantic, reached America, and became world powers. A beautifully written account of the age conveys exactly how a country like Portugal could establish outposts from South America to the Pacific, how Christian fleets wrested control of the Mediterranean from the Ottoman Empire, and why the "invincible" Spanish armada met with disaster in its attempt to invade England. A vivid page-turner. |

Название: The Seventy-Four Gun Ship: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Naval Architecture. Volume I: Hull Construction Автор(ы): Jean Boudriot Издательство: Jean Boudriot Publications Год: 1986 Страниц: 170 Язык: English Формат: PDF Размер: 204 MB
As the main naval war machine at the end of the 18th century, the 74 Gun Ship was the result of a compromise, like every successful vessel. Her balance between strong guns and manoeuvrability offered by the 28 gun lower gundeck and firing 36 pound cannon-balls, made the "74" the perfect ship of the line. Since she moved more easily, she was much more useful in combat than the heavy 100 gun three-decker. |
