{"product_id":"bronze-age-war-chariots-nic-fields-9781841769448","title":"Bronze Age War Chariots","description":"Chariots, the first mobile fighting vehicle, seem to have originated in Mesopotamia in the third millennium BC. The highly mobile two-wheeled war chariot, carrying a driver and an archer armed with a short composite bow, revolutionized military tactics after 1700 BC. This expensive weapon spread throughout the Middle East and is thought to have reached Egypt with the conquering Hyksos. It spread into Asia Minor, Greece, and was known in Northern Europe by 1500 BC. This book covers the evolution of the war chariot throughout the Bronze Age, detailing its design, development and combat history - in particular its fundamental involvement at the battle of Qadesh.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nic Fields\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1841769444\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781841769448\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Osprey Publishing (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.37lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.66h x 7.34w x 0.16d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2006 pg. 102","brand":"Nic Fields","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938910011647,"sku":"9781841769448","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c0ed1b43-c931-4692-b95e-db6709443c6c.jpg?v=1681438394","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/bronze-age-war-chariots-nic-fields-9781841769448","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
