Members Reviews:
impressive and informing
Impressive and informing book! How often have people like us--those who enjoy reading and studying history/war--learned a considerable amount of new knowledge from reading new history works? We piece together new bits and, at the end, we have come away with some new dates, or interesting anecdotes to historical figures/situations. This is really a great book to read and recommend to others!
Great Short Read!
I really enjoyed this mini-edition... I like the perspective the author is writing from. I don't feel force feed content from any particular bias or way of thinking. My favorite part of the book: The Battle of Waterloo in chapter 6 really delves into great content of the historic battle. Great book to gain knowledge on some historic battles!
Four Stars
was ok but not as good a read as some I've read on this subject
Taking note of the incredible contributors
The book has a lot about History and the men who changed the world either positively or negatively, This noted in the History about Napoleon Bonaparte, Our fore fathers like George Washington, a distinguished American Revolutionary, the French Revolution and the Heroes in the History like Dwight D. Eisenhower among others.
Excellent book, very readable
If you're a student of Ancient civilizations and military institutions, this book is for you. I enjoyed this book because it contained information that I never knew about. If you like history of army, you will love this book. I highly recommend it to history lovers.
