Victor Brooks examines in considerable detail the various battles and campaigns of the early wars fought by the young republic, in search of common factors that may have led to the nation's survival and triumph. The vast distances, sparse population, and supply problems endemic to all the campaigns in North America are carefully examined. In all its early wars, the United States relied upon a small force of professional soldiers backed up by larger numbers of short-term volunteers; the positive and negative effects of this policy in each war are considered. For each war, the commanders for each side are rated as to performance, and an analysis made of how their individual strengths and weaknesses may have influenced the outcome of the conflict.A specially commissioned series of maps make clear the various strategic and tactical issues at stake from the American Revolution to the end of the Civil War. -- Provided by publisher. 588 0 Print version record. 650 0 Military art and science|zUnited States|xHistory. 650 0 Strategy|xHistory. 650 7 TECHNOLOGY & ENGINEERING|xMilitary Science.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|xMilitary|xOther.|2bisacsh 650 7 Military art and science.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01020874 650 7 Strategy.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01134406 651 0 United States|xHistory, Military. 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 Hohwald, Robert S. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aBrooks, Victor.|tHow America fought its wars.|dConshohocken, Penn : Combined Pub., 1999 |z1580970028|w(DLC) 99025572|w(OCoLC)41076337 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-31|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5PCJ 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-31|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5HEI 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-31|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5URC 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-31|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5OLO 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-26|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5ATO 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-09|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5WIT 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2021-03-05|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5MHT 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-12-31|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5TSM 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-12-31|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5MTU 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-12-18|yAdded to collection netlibrary.ebooks|5HHM 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-12-18|yAdded to collection netlibrary.ebooks|5DZA 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-12-11|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5WAL 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-11-27|yCustom text change|5OTC 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-11-20|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5MAL 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-11-20|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5OTC 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-11-20|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5STU 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-11-04|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5FIN 990 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bAll EBSCO eBooks|c2020-10-22|yNew collection netlibrary.ebooks|5BLU
