Synopsis
This text seeks to explain the creation of a modern American Army in a country hostile to centralized military power. The effects of various European nations on the US are examined. The central theme of this book, however, is how a small number of influential figures impressed with US business borrowed management techniques from national corporations to modernize the army. It is argued these military reforms represented a wider influence in the progressive era which sought to utilize management techniques developed by US business to improve government.
