Summary: it seems there is nothing they didn't try!
Comment: This is another great book from Dr. Stephen Turnbull a two part serie on the amazing Siege Weapons of the Far East that they really should change the name to Siege Weapons from China and the Far east thats because of the mayority of the weapons are from china. This is the first time a see a book about the Siege Warfare use by China,Japan and the Mongols, illustrated with spectacular artwork. The Illustration are from Wayne Reynolds which make a great work trying to reconstruct a manual trebuchet use by the chinese.

Exploding cows, wheeled rocket launchers, elephant-mounted crossbows are some of the rare weapons use in Asia, I can tell you that you would not be disappointed because of the great detail of these weapons, to tell you the true is sometime hard to believe that this type of weapons were ever use but the work of Mr Turnbull is very high technical quality.
One of the best and original works publish to this date.Also form the same author Ashigaru 1467-1649(Warrior 29)and Samurai Warfare are another great title to buy.
