Two negatives: the book just covers fortifications and building technology in Europe, and that just from about the Middle Ages. Secondly, there is no table of contents, or index that I could find. And, in the Kindle Cloud Reader, at least, the "book is not yet enabled for searching." Neither of these mitigate what I said in the first sentence of this post!
There is a standard Kindle TOC via the usual GoTo menu.

There is also quite a lot about the Romans, see the image of a Roman march camp at loc 201 (from Masada, Israel - preserved in the desert) and of course many European towns started from Roman military roots.

Search worked on my Fire and when I tapped on the image above "Video..." at the beginning I was taken to YouTube !
