Archaeology has taught us much about the way of life, habits and homes of Bronze Age people, but as yet little has been written about warfare. What was Bronze Age warfare like? How did people fight and against whom? What weapons were used? Did they fortify their settlements, and, if so, were these intended as defensive or offensive structures? This, the first detailed study of warfare in Bronze Age Europe, aims to answer these and many other questions."; including index - 165 pages. A HEAVY BOOK WHICH MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL POSTAGE.
