Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book collects and presents a series of descriptions, diagrams, and tables on the construction of field fortifications. The author illustrates the various tools, materials, and techniques used to create defences to protect both troops and their equipment from the front lines, detailing how to construct a variety of defence structures, from rapidly-built, basic shelters to more elaborate, long-term fortifications. It explains the tactical employment of works in the field, including more substantial structures such as redoubts, to be used for supporting troop activity in the field. The author provides detailed plans and measurements to aid the reader in undertaking their own construction of such works, and data on the amount of material and labour required to complete each project. Originally produced for military use, this book is a valuable resource for military historians, architectural historians, and historic reenactment groups. It is also relevant to those seeking the best methods for building shelters and defensive structures in emergency situations, crisis response, and disaster preparedness.
