Sinossi

Artillery Power examines the sweeping impact of artillery on military history, arguing its evolution has consistently reshaped battlefield tactics and military strategy from ancient times to modern warfare. The book highlights how artillery redefined the possibilities and limitations of military power, not just through technological advancements but also through its influence on social and economic factors. Readers will discover how crucial the interplay between technology, strategy, and societal forces are to understanding artillery's impact.

 
The book chronologically progresses from ancient siege engines to contemporary precision-guided munitions, detailing tactical adaptations driven by artillery's enhanced capabilities. For instance, the shift from gunpowder artillery to more sophisticated siege guns during the Renaissance significantly altered territorial control strategies. Similarly, the advent of rifled artillery transformed industrial warfare during the American Civil War, making battles deadlier and more complex. This study provides a comprehensive look at how artillery's development forced militaries to adapt.

 
Drawing from military manuals, battle reports, and quantitative data, Artillery Power offers a balanced and objective analysis suitable for both academics and enthusiasts interested in military technology and its historical significance, making it a valuable resource for understanding military planning and defense procurement.

    The vast history of Britain is now at your fingertips! 
    Britain has a long history, from the days of Roman settlements, such as Londinium (modern-day London), to the days of Britain ruling the waves to the subsequent decline of the empire and the rise of the Commonwealth. It is hard to cover the entire history of Britain in just one book. However, this text seeks to break its history down into easily digestible sections. 
    This book starts us off at the point at which Britain entered into the historical record. Follow along as we unveil the invasion of Julius Caesar and the conquests of later Romans. These were the first people to write down their thoughts and feelings about Britain’s inhabitants. 
    The Roman Empire itself would eventually crash, but Hadrian’s Wall, as well as a multitude of Roman settlements, would remain. These were inherited by the Anglo-Saxons, who arrived from the German-speaking lands just across the English Chanel. The Anglo-Saxons created a rich history and culture but would be supplanted by the Normans in 1066. 
    The Tudor dynasty emerged in 1485, fundamentally changing life in Britain. The most notorious Tudor of all, King Henry VIII, broke free from Roman Catholicism and instituted the Church of England with himself at its head. 
    Here is just a peek at what you will learn:The rise of Anglo-Saxon rule and the establishment of EnglandWilliam the Conqueror and how he changed the course of British historyHenry VIII and the Protestant ReformationThe many conflicts between England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern IrelandThe legacy of Wales and Welsh cultureScotland’s role in British affairsBritain’s involvement in World War One and World War TwoFamous myths and legends of the British Isles

    Welcome to a poet's introspective world of jubilance and turbulence, where life's cresting waves of love, grief, and rebirth collide with the profound power of poetry. 
    In Just Leaves, Lauren Best offers confessional glimpses into a deeply personal odyssey, unraveling the intricate threads of identity, creativity, and the human experience. With quirky candour, Best's immersive reflections celebrate the complexities that define us all. 
    Bringing vibrancy to the depths of personal growth and discovery, she invites listeners inwards to feel the emotional resonance of language: "We all know words are arrows we have felt in our hearts". Through thoughtfully crafted contemplation and playful exploration, Best unveils a fierce tenderness that fuels her artistry, motherhood, and pursuit of balance in an era that craves vulnerability. 
    While still recovering from profound loss and trauma, Best was chosen to be Owen Sound's Poet Laureate (2017-2019) and began creating the poems in this collection. As she traversed the complexities of her own life story, her tenure became a transformative exploration of self, power, and the healing force of poetry. Exploring sound and lyrical storytelling, these poems build on her work as a musician and songwriter. The words rhythmically pulse, swaying from intellectual to sensory. 
    Evocative language drips with sensual longing, entwining embodied motion and emotion both viscerally and visually. The impact of words cascades through the audiobook, connecting experiences across time to braid together the nostalgic past, raw and precious present, and effervescent glow of an optimistic future. 
    Perfect for poetry enthusiasts and newcomers, especially those who love the works of Anne Michaels and Mary Oliver. 
    Embark on an unforgettable journey guided by a distinctive Canadian voice, offering a front-row seat to savour the extraordinary and appreciate the familiar with heartfelt wonder.
