The Renaissance Drill Book
by David J. Blackmore
Jacob de Gheyn's Exercise of Armes was an immense success when first published in 1607. It is a fascinating seventeeth-century military manual, designed to instruct contemporary soldiers how to handle arms effectively, and correctly, and it makes for a unique glimpse into warfare as waged in the Thirty Years War and the English Civil War. The manual uses illustrations to clearly demonstrate drill for soldiers employing calivers and muskets. It shows how to load and fire, or merely carry, a matchlock piece. In addition detailed illustrations show the various movements and postures to be adopted during use of the pike. 248p (Greenhill Books 2003)

Lloyd,
All of these books are available through our Bookstore. Many are competitively priced. A portion of any sales made through the bookstore goes to this site to help sustain it.

People can obviously buy books where they choose to do so. But don't forget that the affiliate relationship with Amazon helps this site, which we all benefit from.

Feel free to create a Reading List through the bookstore, Lloyd. Your reviews and rating will help future book buyers make purchases.
