"Author 1633-1707 was the greatest military engineer of the early modern period and the undisputed master of siege warfare. During a career that extended from the Fronde to the War of the Spanish Succession he developed a theory and practice of siegecratt and fortification which served as the model of warfare until the Napoleonic Era.
