Military History

[sonic]

I have to admit that I voted for 'eight or more' of the above, since the only ones I am not interested in are the '19th century US warfare, incl. Civil War' - although the Civil War does have a limited appeal when I am in a weird mood - and 19th century European and Colonial warfare, as I am just not interested.

However, I am most interested in:

Early Italy i.e. when Rome was just a small town that everybody could ignore! and when the Samnites and Etruscans were at their height;

Sumerian warfare, the earliest known;

The Fall of the West and the Rise of Byzantium, ie c. AD 400-600;

The Rise of the Anglo-Saxon Kingdoms, AD 400-600

and The End of the Anglo-Saxon Kingdom, c. AD 1000-1100.

I hope that gives you enough information!!

Strangely enough, neither Alexander the Great nor Julius Caesar interest me - possibly because of overfamiliarisation: let's admit it, they are over-covered in the history books!!
