5.0 out of 5 stars Reconstruction of the Cheiroballista, March 28, 2002
By 
Patrick Hoffman (Anchorage, Alaska United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Journal of Roman Military Equipment Studies 6, 1995 (Journal of Roman Military Equipment Studies, Vol 6) (Paperback)
This book is essential for researching the cheiroballista. It has many diagrams, measurements. Importantly it addresses the interpretation of other publications and replicas of the cheiroballista. On another note although the reconstruction of the cheiroballista is a good part of this book, it is a journal and contains other articles referencing roman equipment.

I will add this book to my "got to have library."

Other books that have found important for ballista are:
Payne Gallway, "The Crossbow"
Marsden, Eric William. Greek and Roman artillery; technical treatises
Marsden, Eric William. Greek and Roman artillery; historical development
