SIEGE WARFARE Castles and their ruins still dominate the landscape and are a constant 2012 reminder to us of a time when violence, or the threat of it, was the norm. HarperPress Dan Snow explores the world’s greatest medieval castles: from Dover Castle to Château Gaillard, Richard I’s fortress in Normandy, and Castillo de Gibalfaro, the last vanguard of Moorish rule in Spain, to Krak des Chevaliers in Syria – an astounding feat of engineering by the Crusaders. Each castle’s story is dramatically recounted: the building techniques, the weapons used and daily life within the walls.

DEATH OR VICTORY An epic history of the battle of Quebec, the death of Wolfe and the 2009 beginnings of Britain’s empire in North America. Military history at its best. HarperPress In this magisterial book which ties in to the 250th anniversary of the battle, Dan Snow tells the story of this famous campaign which was to have far- reaching consequences for Britain's rise to global hegemony, and the world at large. Snow brilliantly sets the battle within its global context and tells a gripping tale of brutal war quite unlike those fought in Europe, where terrain, weather and native Indian tribes were as fearsome as any enemy. 'I never served so disagreeable campaign as this,' grumbled one British commander, 'it is war of the worst shape.' 1759 was, without question, a year in which the decisions of men changed the world for ever. Based on original research, and told from all perspectives, this is history – military, political, human – on an epic scale.
