Product Description
"One of the most interesting, important, and ambitious books about the conduct, and perhaps the ultimate futility, of war." ―Gunther E. Rothenberg
"[A] highly scholarly and wonderfully absorbing study." ―John Bayley, The London Review of Books
"What Russell F. Weigley writes, the rest of us read. The Age of Battles is a persuasive reminder that even in the age of ‘rational’ warfare, one can honestly wonder why war seemed an unavoidable policy choice." ―Allan R. Millett, The Journal of American History
