Confrontation of Kings, 1656: The Three-Day Battle of Warsaw in the Swedish Deluge, 1655-1660 from our Century of the Soldier 1618-1721 series is now available!
Confrontation of Kings brings to English readers, for the first time, the largest battle of the Swedish Deluge (1655–1660). Over three days, the Swedish-Brandenburg Alliance clashed with Polish, Lithuanian, and Tatar forces in a struggle for dominance in the Baltic. It was both a contest of military styles and a fierce rivalry between Polish King John II Casimir and Sweden’s Charles X Gustavus.
Based on contemporary sources, including unpublished soldier accounts, this in-depth study details the battle, the armies’ organisation, and the military systems of Sweden, the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, Brandenburg-Prussia, and the Crimean Tatars. With fresh research on a little-known war, it offers valuable insights for both military history enthusiasts and scholars.
