From the Critics

"The book is clearly written and well organized...Excellent treatment of recruitment and fascinating sociological material also help make this the most useful extended exercise in new military history yet to appear."
-"European History Quarterly
"An excellent example of how to present the most up to date research in a field...The book is an example of ''new military history'' which studies armies and war in the context of historical society."
-"Historical Journal
"The reader will find here numerous telling quotations, interesting facts and instructive insights."
-"English Historical Review
"Tallett''s book is rich, detailed, systematic, and a model of clear, well-constructed writing. He blends a range of sources and references deftly. As a text or reader for early modern history courses, this instructive work is a perfect introduction to the new military history- or to just plain fine scholarship."
-"Sixteenth Century Journal
