The great civilizations, empires, and nations that have defined human history have all depended on strong military machines to seize and maintain power. The rise and fall of great states have depended on how their military forces were recruited, supplied, equipped, armed, organized, fielded, and led, and on what sorts of enemies they had to confront. All these bases are covered in the solidly researched and lavishly illustrated “Military Essays,” where you’ll find comprehensive, detailed, and in-depth information on the military organizations that have left their indelible mark on history. |
