Ancient siege warfare

Paul Bentley Kern (Author)
"This book examines how siege warfare was able to unleash unrestrained violence. It shows how the methods of siege warfare devalued the skills of traditional warriors, along with the shared values of honor and prowess that limited the violence of traditional field battles."--Jacket
