From Reformation to Reaction -- Epilogue -- Abbreviations -- Notes -- Acknowledgments -- IndexFrom Lexington and Gettysburg to Normandy and Iraq, wars have defined the United States. But after the guns fall silent, the army searches the lessons of past conflicts, developing the strategies, weapons, doctrines, and commanders that it hopes will guarantee future victory. Linn surveys the past assumptions--and errors--that underlie the army's many visions of warfare up to the present day.Army's way of warMilitary art and scienceUnited StatesHistory20th centuryUnited StatesMilitary policyElectronic books.Military art and scienceHistory355.033573MG 70940rvkLinn Brian McAllister1046060MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910455388703321The echo of battle2472735UNINA
