Military Architecture (Excursions into Architecture Series)

256 pp. 9 3/4 x 9 1/4. A comprehensive survey of the field, from ancient times through The Maginot Line. Profusely illustrated with reproductions of engravings, drawings, and black & white photographs. Valetta and the Three Cities pictured on jacket. Floyd calls this Hughes 'best scholarly book on military architecture' and, though he mentions a revised edition to be published soon, there is no evidence that this occurred (Floyd 26, p. 5).
