With rare insight and "you are there" immediacy, he captures the drama and excitement of each confrontation--from the vast historical perspective of global events, to the ever-changing developments in strategy, weaponry and technology, to the personal contributions of commanders and soldiers whose individual stories of courage reveal the human side of war.
