内容説明

Covering the military history of the United States from the War of Independence to the Gulf War, this work examines the social, technological, political, tactical and strategic developments that have affected the evolution of the US armed forces. The book is arranged in major historical units, each of which consists of a chronology, an account of military operations, biographical profiles, and a selected reading list. The chronology focuses on significant events, military engagements, technological developments, and any other events of note. The section on military operations provides a concise account of significant military actions, and the biographical section gives an appraisal of the roles played by key individuals, including lesser-known leaders.
