Description
To protect their interests in the country, the Spanish built a large amount of fortifications in Venezuela in the 16th, 17th and 18th Century - mainly in the coastal regions of the country in harbours and along trading routes. This is the first book describing these fortifications in detail. Not only it tells the history of these fortifications in general, but it also describes individual forts, batteries and other fortifications in great detail. It does so using HUNDREDS of photos, plans, drawings and maps - mostly in full colour - making this book into what it is: one of the most beautiful books on fortifications published so far - worldwide!
