T h e A r mi es of t h e C a l i p hs : M i l i t a r y a n d S o c i e t y i n t h e E a r ly I s l a m i c State Hugh Kennedy Professor of History, University of ExeterĪ i r P ow er i n t h e Ag e o f To t a l Wa r John Buckley Warfare and History General Editor Jeremy Black He is a leading military historian whose books include Introduction to Global Military History (Routledge, 2005), Rethinking Military History (Routledge, 2004), The British Seaborne Empire (2004) and World War Two: A Military History (Routledge, 2003). Jeremy Black is Professor of History at the University of Exeter. This approach reframes developments within the West, but also offers a shift in focus away from the standard narrative of warfare at this time, making European Warfare in a Global Context, 1660–1815 an essential read for students of the period. This approach is comparative, in the sense of considering Western developments alongside those elsewhere, but it also emphasises conflict between Western and non-Western powers. Black also takes a global approach to this study of warfare. Through this he extends the view beyond land to naval conflict. Instead, his emphasis is on the importance of conflict in the period and the capacity for decisiveness in impact and development in method. He also questions common historiographical conventions, for instance the notion of ancien régime indecisiveness in Western warfare from 1660 until the French Revolutionary wars. While Black discusses questions of military decisiveness and the military revolution, he is reluctant to stress changes in weaponry as the central narrative and the key analytical concept in analysing warfare in the period. Covering conflicts right through the period, Jeremy Black takes a revisionist approach to eighteenth-century warfare.
