Focusing on the military strategies of the Angevin kings from 1189 to 1307, this collection of essays by David S. Bachrach utilizes previously overlooked administrative records to reveal advancements in military technology, including artillery and missile weapons. It underscores the administrative prowess of the kings in managing vast arsenals and supplies while ensuring the welfare of their troops. Bachrach also shifts the narrative away from the traditional knight-centric view, highlighting the significant contributions of lower social classes who engaged in military service and professional soldiering.
