HISTORY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHis detailed analysis of battles provides an important reassessment of the way in which infantry and dismounted cavalry achieved such striking successes. HISTORY This remarkable study confirms [DeVries's] emergence as one of themajor scholars of his generation. JOURNAL OF MILITARY HISTORY  This study departs from the conventional view of the dominance of cavalry in medieval warfare: its objective is to establish the often decisive importance of infantry. Kelly DeVries employs evidence from first-hand accounts - a major feature of this study - to examine the role of the infantry, and the nature of infantry tactics, in nineteen battles fought in England and Europe between 1302 and 1347, in most of which it was the infantry which secured victory. The battles analysed in detail are: Courtrai   Arques   Mons-en-Pevele   Loudon Hill   Kephissos  Bannockburn Boroughbridge   Cassel   Dupplin Moor   Halidon Hill  Laupen   Morlaix   Staveren   Vottem   Crecy  Neville's Cross, and the infantry ambushes: Morgarten  Auberoche  La Roche-Derrien.","brand":"Kelly DeVries","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48280551391483,"sku":"9780851155715","price":29.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9780851155715_582a55f1-27bc-49b0-b5cd-9b16db7b2686.jpg?v=1772483109","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/infantry-warfare-in-the-early-fourteenth-century-9780851155715","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
