A HISTORY OF WARFARE

A History of Warfare presents a panoramic view of warfare across the ages. This scholarly book is superbly narrated by Ian Stuart whose erudite manner and precise articulation turns listening into an expansive journey. Ancient societies are examined to address the fundamental questions about war: Is man innately violent? Is a disciplined army essential for the success of a civilization? Man's use of violence is central to the discussion about war. This untiring and timely narrative is for the bookish audience who delights in academic discourse. It is contemplative and will easily absorb you. J.K.R. ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAR 95]
