From the Back Cover
A history of war and warfare from ancient times to the early modern era, Larry Addington's new book completes his survey of the patterns of war in the Western world. Addington discusses developments in weapons and tactics, methods of logistics, and characteristics of generalship. He shows how the changing patterns of war during this long span of history pave the way for those that would emerge in more recent times, beginning with the American and French revolutions.
