DECISIVE BATTLES OF THE U.S.A.

A retired Major General of the British army surveys incidents, strategy, campaign, engagements, men and operations, in one volume, of eleven important lessons war should have taught us and the military of the world. Each battle is preceded by a synopsis of the years leading up to it, which gives historical continuity. The material is drawn from eyewitness accounts, so far as possible, and goes back to Trenton, Princeton, Bennington, and forward to the House-Argonne in 1916, roughly 21 in all. For armchair strategists, as well as for military experts.
