The Age of Battles: The Quest for Decisive Warfare from Breitenfeld to Waterloo - Paperback
by Russell Frank Weigley (Author)
"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
