Description: Draws together the history and description of weapons and warfare and the military activities of the Pharaohs, from the earliest dynastic times until the Roman period. It begins by identifying the friends and foes of the Ancient Egyptians and then takes the reader through the wide range of weapons used, showing how they developed over time and how foreign innovations such as the use of horses and chariots were eagerly adopted and adapted. Subsequent chapters look at the life and training of a new recruit, the structure of the army, what soldiers did when they were not on campaigns and the realities and dangers of a soldier's life. The final chapters look at fortifications and the art of siege warfare, and at the series of campaigns of the Pharaohs. The major campaigns of the great Warrior Pharaohs are covered in more detail.
