Rycerz krzyżacki 1190-1561
ISBN: 9788378897101 / Polski / Miękka / 2018 / 66 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Zmilitaryzowany zakon krzyżacki był jedną z najsławniejszych kongregacji braci-rycerzy, dorównując nawet szpitalnikom i templariuszom. Z początku zadanie rycerzy skupiało się na utrzymaniu państw łacinników na Bliskim Wschodzie, lecz utrata posiadłości ziemskich w tym rejonie w XIII wieku skłoniła zakon do wzięcia udziału w krucjatach nad Morzem Bałtyckim, wymierzonych w pogańskich Prusów, prawosławnych Rusinów oraz swego katolickiego sąsiada, Królestwo Polskie. Niniejsza praca omawia tę ciekawą grupę zmilitaryzowanych zakonników, przybliżając przy pomocy...

At this time, the Sunni Muslim 'Abbasid Caliphate, with its capital at Baghdad, ruled virtually the entire Islamic world.

The Mamluks 1250-1517
ISBN: 9781855323148 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In Europe the Mamluks of Egypt are remembered as so-called 'Slave Kings' who drove out the Crusaders from the Holy Land; but they were far more than that. Though its frontiers barely changed, the Mamluk Sultanate remained a 'great power' for two and a half centuries. Its armies were the culmination of a military tradition stretching back to the 8th century, and provided a model for the early Ottoman Empire, whose own armies reached the gates of Vienna only twelve years after the Mamluks were overthrown. This absorbing text by David Nicolle explores the organisation and tactics of these...

European Medieval Tactics (2): New Infantry, New Weapons 1260-1500
ISBN: 9781849087391 / Angielski / Miękka / 2012 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Longbows, crossbows, heavy spears, swiss pikes, catapaults, and especially gunpowder artillery and handheld guns such as the arquebus gradually but profoundly changed European warfare. By about 1260 the steady rise of the European heavily armoured mounted knight to the predominant role in most pitched battles was complete. But though he dominated the actual day of battle, he did not dominate warfare - there were plenty of vital though unglamorous tasks for which footsoldiers were still necessary, 'cleaning up round the edges'. With the development in the 13th century of co-operative...

The Moors: The Islamic West 7th-15th Centuries AD
ISBN: 9781855329645 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The high point of medieval Islamic expansion was the 700-year presence of the 'Moors' in Spain and Portugal. The Arab and Berber conquest was followed by the establishment of a richly distinct culture in Andalusia, where for a while Muslim and Christian co-operated as often as they fought. The rise and fall of successive Islamic dynasties brought new invaders, fragmentation and disunity; and the growing Christian kingdoms to the north eventually doomed the amirate of Granada, the last Moorish bastion, which fell to the Castilians in 1492. The colourful armies of Western Islam are described...

The Janissaries
ISBN: 9781855324138 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Janissaries comprised an elite corps in the service of the Ottoman Empire. It was composed of war captives and Christian youths pressed into service; all of whom were converted to Islam and trained under the strictest discipline. In many ways, Jannisaries reflected Ottoman society, which was itself dominated by a military elite and where there was much greater social mobility than in Europe. On top of this, the Turks looked upon Europe much as the early Americans viewed the Western Frontier - as a land of adventure, mission and opportunity. David Nicolle examines the history,...

Rome's Enemies (5): The Desert Frontier
ISBN: 9781855321663 / Angielski / Miękka / 1991 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Rome's desert frontier was one where the Empire faced few dangers, for here relations were generally based on a mutual interest in trade across the frontier. Yet when Rome did clash with desert peoples, particularly those of Syria and Arabia, the mobility, fighting skills and ability to withdraw into an arid wilderness often gave the Arabs, Berbers and Sudanese an extra edge. This fascinating volume by David Nicolle explores the history and armies of Rome's enemies of the desert frontier. The author's fine text is accompanied by a wealth of illustrations and photographs, including eight...

Rycerz zakonu szpitalników (2) 1306-1565
ISBN: 9788365746047 / Polski / Miękka / 2016 / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 6-8 dni roboczych. Po okresie kampanii na lądzie stoczonych na wczesnym etapie istnienia, od schyłku XIV w. zakon szpitalników walczył głównie na morzu. Nacisk kładziono teraz na działania na małą skalę, nie zaś na inwazje sił krzyżowych, które tak często kończyły się fiaskiem. Po podbiciu Rodos zakon ufortyfikował je i tam przeniósł się w 1309 r. Po okresie prowadzonej z przerwami walki przeciw mamelukom nadeszła wojna na pełną skalę, z Turkami osmańskimi, którzy zdobyli Rodos w 1522 r., zmuszając szpitalników do wyniesienia się na Maltę. Niniejsza książka, będąca drugą z...

Constantinople 1453: The End of Byzantium
ISBN: 9781841760919 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 96 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This Osprey title details the epic four-month siege of the city of Constantinople in 1453, last vestige of the once mighty Roman and Byzantine Empires. Mehmet 'The Conqueror' led an army of 80,000 men with a massive siege train against the city. Defending were a mere 10,000 men under the Emperor Constantine XI. The Turkish artillery battered the ancient city walls mercilessly, levelling a large section. A gallant defence held off the massive Turkish assault for several hours. Refusing appeals to flee, Constantine returned to the breaches and fought until overwhelmed and killed. Thus died the...

Armies of the Muslim Conquest
ISBN: 9781855322790 / Angielski / Miękka / 1993 / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The dramatic eruption of the Arab peoples from Arabia after their adoption of the Muslim faith in the 7th century remains one of the most extraordinary events in world history. By the end of that century they ruled a state that stretched from the Atlantic to India, from southern Arabia to Central Asia, covering an area far greater than that of the Roman Empire. Therefore warfare, at least among the nomadic bedouin, was a normal aspect of life. Complemented by numerous illustrations, including eight full page colour plates by Angus McBride, this detailed text by David Nicolle tells the real...

The Arthurian Age; the Celtic Twilight; the Dark Ages; the Birth of England; these are the powerfully romantic names often given to one of the most confused yet vital periods in British history.

Inaczej niż ich będący przez pewien czas ich rywalem zakon templariuszy, Zakon Szpitalników św. Jana Jerozolimskiego (czy też szpitalników, pod którą to nazwą jest bardziej znany) nie powstał w wyniku zorganizowania pierwszej krucjaty w 1099 r.; przeciwnie – został prawdopodobnie założony przez grupę włoskich kupców z Amalfi w połowie XI w. Jednak w wyniku powstania ruchu krucjatowego szpitalnicy posiedli cenioną wiedzę specjalistyczną na temat zdolności militarnych nieprzyjacielskich armii muzułmańskich.

In the year 1495, Charles VIII was the youthful King of France, the most powerful state in medieval Europe. A dreamer who saw himself as the saviour of Christian Europe, he believed he could roll back the ever-spreading tide of Ottoman Turkish conquest. As a base for his crusade he was determined to seize southern Italy. In a lightning campaign he used France's modern army to sweep through Italy, his mobile field artillery train smashing into dust the tall towers of Italy's medieval castles. The Italian states rallied and at Fornovo their alliance, the League of Venice, fought Charles' army...
