The Illustrated Face of Battle: A Study of Agincourt, Waterloo, and the Somme.

$20.00

Author - John Keegan

Year published - 1988

Published by - Viking Press

Book Format - Hard Cover

Summary

The Face of Battle is military history from the battlefield: a look at the direct experience of individuals at 'the point of maximum danger'. It examines the physical conditions of fighting, the particular emotions and behavior generated by battle, as well as the motives that impel soldiers to stand and fight rather than run away. And in his scrupulous reassessment of three battles, John Keegan vividly conveys their reality for the participants, whether facing the arrow cloud of Agincourt, the leveled muskets of Waterloo or the steel rain of the Somme.
