Description: This collection of essays, written by members of the British Commission for Military History, examines key aspects of the experience of the US and British armies, ranging from the American Civil War to the most recent example of high intensity manoeuvre war, the Gulf Conflict of 1991. The exercise of command in particular is an under-researched area and the essays make a major contribution to our understanding of this vital topic.
