Stanley L. Sandler - Ground Warfare: An International Encyclopedia (3 vol. set)
ABC-Clio | 2002 | ISBN: 1576073440 | English | 1102 pages | PDF | 17.84 MB

Ground Warfare covers its subject from ancient times to the present. Coverage is international in scope, and according to the introduction the intended audiences are scholars and general readers.
Entries are accompanied by an introduction; an alphabetical list of entries; a list of contributors; a list of abbreviations, terms, and acronyms; a select bibliography; and an index. Each signed entry is one-quarter to several pages in length and concludes with a short bibliography and, in most cases, cross-references. Scope encompasses biographies, battles, wars, raids, and weapons. Among its more than 1,200 entries, Ground Warfare includes some unusual discussions like Music, military; Religion and war; and Reporting, war. There are also entries for treatment of ground combat in the arts and for the roles played by women.
The text is enhanced by appropriately placed black-and-white maps, illustrations, and photographs. Information is fairly current, covering the troubles in Peru, Rwanda, Somalia, and Yugoslavia through 2000.
