The following books, many of which provided source material for
this web site, are listed in alphabetical order by author. I have
included a number of general works as well as those primarily
concerned with military architecture. This is done to assist any
persons new to the area of military history putting fortifications
and siegecraft into some sort of context. I have highlighted those
works which have a specific relevance to Vauban.
