Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Essay on the Military Architecture of the Middle Ages The work now offered to English readers has already attained an European reputation in its original language. The accomplished Author has thrown entirely new light on an interesting subject, and has brought to bear upon it not only the results of his great experience as an architect, but also shews a thorough knowledge of the principles of engineering, and great research as an antiquary. The remains of our ancient castles will no longer be considered merely as picturesque ruins, but as objects of careful study, worthy of minute examination in order to discover not only the age when each part was built, but also the special purpose for which it was built with a view to the defence of the castle or town. That part of the work which relates to the hoarding, or wooden constructions to assist in the defence of the castle, is entirely new, and explains many things which were previously quite incomprehensible.
