Description: "Rather than presenting a history of battles and campaigns, the author offers here an analysis of leadership in combat over three continents and across two oceans. He looks at how sergeants, lieutenants, captains, and generals direct soldiers in the most intense of all human dramas - and how those soldiers react."--Jacket.
