Southeast Asian Warfare, 1300 1900

Michael W. Charney, "Southeast Asian Warfare"

This book is a much needed and welcome contribution to the field, as no attempt has been made to update pre-colonial Southeast Asian warfare comprehensively from a regional approach since H. G. Quaritch Wales's Ancient South-East Asian warfare (London: Bernard Quaritch, 1952). It argues for the significance of indigenous and innovative Southeast Asian style warfare and the limited effectiveness of foreign technology (particularly gunpowder) before the nineteenth century.
