The Almanacs of American Wars series traces American war history from the 18th century to the present day, with each volume providing an up-close look at a particular period of American history and its role and influence on various acts of war. The bulk of each book is devoted to a detailed, day-by-day chronology of the people and events important during wartime conflicts. An A-to-Z dictionary follows, covering people, battles, events, and other exciting details such as military strategies from the opposing sides and information on significant military leaders and their roles during battle. Dozens of maps, photographs, and illustrations combine with a comprehensive index, a bibliography, and cross-references to make each volume an accessible reference for those interested in American war history and the role America played in times of military struggle.
