      abstract = {"In Warriors for a Living, Idan Sherer examines the  experience of the Spanish infantry during the formative  period of the Italian Wars. Decades of clashes between  Spain and France transformed Italy into a crucible of  military tactics and technology and brought about the  emergence of the Spanish infantry tercios as Europe's  finest military force for more than a century. From their  recruitment, through the complexities of everyday life in  the army and culminating in the potential brutality of  soldiering, the book offers a fresh and much needed  exploration, analysis and, at times, reconsideration of  what it meant to be a professional soldier in early modern  Europe."--Provided by publisher.},
