- The first in a new Polity series of volumes which, taken
together, will provide a history of war from ancient times to the
present day.
- This first volume deals with the rich military history of the
nineteenth century and is written by an internationally renowned
military historian.
- Takes a fresh “twenty-first century” approach,
making novel links with conflict of the period in the broad sense,
including irregular, internal and asymmetric war.
- Maintains a judicious balance between major state-to-state warfares and smaller conflicts which provide a deliberate shift from Western-centricity.
