Description
The Battle of Castagnaro 1387: A New Perspective In 1387, a pivotal battle took place in medieval Italy, with the Veronese facing off against the Paduans. This clash of armies, fought on 11 March, was a significant victory for the Paduan forces, led by a renowned English condottiere captain. A fresh study of this battle challenges the traditional narrative, relocating the conflict to the other side of the Adige River. This new interpretation reveals that the English captain was not simply a disciple of his previous commander, but a skilled and intelligent general in his own right. The book presents a detailed analysis of the battle, using specially commissioned full-color artwork to illustrate the tactics and strategies employed by the condottieri.
