The Art of the Catapult
The Art of the Catapult ›
By William Gurstelle

Trade Paper

Published Jul 2018

Whether playing at defending their own castle or simply chucking pumpkins over a fence, wannabe marauders and tinkerers will become fast acquainted with the ancient artillery devices known commonly as catapults. Updated and improved instructions and diagrams illustrate how to build ten authentic working model catapults. The colorful history of siege warfare is explored through the stories of Alexander the Great and his battle of Tyre; Saladin, Richard the Lionheart, and the Third Crusade; pirate-turned-soldier John Crabbe and his ship-mounted catapults; and Edward I of England and his battle against the Scots at Stirling Castle.
