Despite mankind's long record of armed conflict, there are specific battles which seem to hold history itself in the balance. Battles with outcomes reaching far beyond the lives and times of the combatants to the survival and dominance of races, cultures, religions and philosophies. These titles are the product of scholarly research and bring the salient battles to life through entertaining and informative writing, maps, ample illustrations and most importantly, a record of the men who fought and died and why they did. From ancient to contemporary, "Great Battles of the World" is what history class should have been. |
