1638172261638. Guillet de Saint-Georges George.

Organized alphabetically the work defines terms related to field operations garrison duty artillery and the mechanics of attack and defense supported by historical examples drawn from contemporary military actions.

The text supports research into early modern military science linguistic standardization of warfare and the training of officers in seventeenth-century Europe.<br /> <br /> Guillet de Saint-Georges George.
