The greatest military historian of our time continues his magnificent chronicle of the wars, battles, captains and commanders, weapons, and ideologies which have shaped the Western world. Major-General J. F. C. Fuller, a pioneer of mechanized warfare in Great Britain, was one of the twentieth century’s most renowned military strategists and historians. In this magisterial work he spans military history from the Greeks to the end of World War II, describing tactics, battle lines, the day-to-day struggles while always relating affairs on the field to the larger questions of social, political, and economic change in Western civilization. A masterpiece of scholarship and biting prose, this second volume of three describes the 16th-century rivalry between England and Spain, the Thirty Years War, struggle between France and England, American Revolutionary War, and the rise and fall of Napoleon. “General Fuller’s ‘Military History,’ seen as a whole, is a magnificent survey of the evolution of western military organization, tactics and strategy from the earliest times to the present: and perhaps its outstanding feature is the fact that this evolution is always seen within the context of political and social history, the author being careful to demonstrate the reciprocal relationship which exists between military establishments on the one hand and civilian societies which support them on the other.”—New York Herald Tribune

"One of the most interesting, important, and ambitious books about the conduct, and perhaps the ultimate futility, of war." --Gunther E. Rothenberg " A] highly scholarly and wonderfully absorbing study." --John Bayley, The London Review of Books "What Russell F. Weigley writes, the rest of us read. The Age of Battles is a persuasive reminder that even in the age of 'rational' warfare, one can honestly wonder why war seemed an unavoidable policy choice." --Allan R.

The way an army thinks about and understands warfare has a tremendous impact on its organization, training, and operations. The central ideas of that understanding form a nation's way of warfare that influences decisions on and off the battlefield. From the disasters of the War of 1812, Winfield Scott ensured that America adopted a series of ideas formed in the crucible of the Wars of the French Revolution and epitomized by Napoleon. Reflecting American cultural changes, these French ideas dominated American warfare on the battlefields of the Mexican-American War, the American Civil War, the Spanish-American War, and World War I. America remained committed to these ideas until cultural pressures and the successes of German Blitzkrieg from 1939 - 1940 led George C. Marshall to orchestrate the adoption of a different understanding of warfare. Michael A. Bonura examines concrete battlefield tactics, army regulations, and theoretical works on war as they were presented in American army education manuals, professional journals, and the popular press, to demonstrate that as a cultural construction, warfare and ways of warfare can be transnational and influence other nations.
