Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a fascinating chapter of history: the use of homing pigeons for military purposes. The author, drawing on historical accounts and personal observations, explores the complex origins of this practice, tracing its use from ancient times to the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. The book examines how these birds were employed as vital messengers, their ability to navigate across vast distances relied upon by emperors, revolutionaries, and even financiers seeking a competitive edge. The author examines the long-standing debate over whether a pigeonââ â¢s homing ability is rooted in instinct, training, or a combination of both, delving into theories that attribute their incredible navigation to atmospheric influences or even electrical currents. This book not only illuminates the history of using pigeons for communication but also raises profound questions about the nature of intelligence, instinct, and the limits of human understanding. Through a blend of historical analysis and scientific inquiry, the author presents a compelling case for the pigeonââ â¢s role as a vital historical figure in its own right, a creature that has defied human understanding while serving as a key player in pivotal moments in history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781332034758_0
