"Following a loose chronological framework, the atlas examines every significant U.S. military campaign and war, both domestically and internationally, from the Colonial Wars to the present. Written by noted military historians, each section combines analysis with a strong narrative account and an assessment of major campaigns and battles - taking up the American viewpoint as well as that of its allies and opponents. Military method, weaponry, and communication technology receive detailed treatment, in the text and in the maps." "Featuring a color map program, the atlas includes more than 140 specially commissioned maps and graphic reconstructions, as well as reproductions of historical, military cartography. The maps highlight troop, ship, and aircraft movements of major campaigns and battles, the theaters of fighting, the balance of forces, and the wider strategic picture. The book also features hundreds of illustrations and information on military commanders, events, treaties, and civilian personalities."--BOOK JACKET.
