Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. If anecdotes are marginal notes on the pages of history, these will delight any reader who has ever been moved or entertained by the condition of the soldier. Few fields of human endeavor have inspired so many memorable anecdotes as warfare, from the Bible and Livy through Gibbon and Froissart, to the imperial wars of the nineteenth century and the world conflicts of the twentieth. This collection of is principally concerned with American and British conflicts, with, as the author says, "occasional forays among the ranks of foreign armies"--notably the Greeks, the Romans, and Napoleon's veterans. Hastings has sought stories that illustrate the military condition through the ages, both on the battlefield and in barracks: comic, eccentric, heroic, tragic. Here are Caesar at the Rubicon and the revolt of the Praetorian Guard; Alexander's horse and Prince Rupert's dog; the legendary Mother Ross enlisting in search of her lost husband in 1693; Evelyn Waugh as the least plausible of commandos; General Douglas MacArthur's good luck charm "Charlie," a lump of lava rock carved into a Hawaiian warrior; and much more. Some of the stories will be familiar to students of military history while others are less well known, but all provide fascinating sidelights to history. "An outstanding book.in a class by itself. It's a work of literature. One can't simply browse: The quality of the writing casts the spell of poetry. Although historical, the stories take on the universality of art."--Christian Science Monitor "Hastings is.aware of a good story. [He] succeeds in illustrating the soldiers' experience in both unusual and specific aspects."--Library Journal BL"[A] fascinating collection of military stories.the sort of book that can be picked up at intervals.[but] once tasted, is hard to put down."--Washington Post Book World Great war stories by Max Hastings, a leading military historian and war correspondent About the Author: Max Hastings is a well-known author specializing in military history. His most recent books include Bomber Command, Battle for the Falklands, and Overlord. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Illustrated Coated Cardstock. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. First Paperback Printing. "This selection is principally Brotosh and American, with occasional forays among fpreign armies. Although it begins in earliest times, it emphasizes the post-eighteenth-century period when anecdotage achieved the form we most readily recognize today. Many pages of the Old Testament, of course, are filled with bloodcurdling military history. Classical literature is rich in evocative battlefield experience. Yet searching the narratives of Xenophon, Thucydides, Caesar and others, I found surprisingly few passages that possess the quality of whimsey, and stand well enough alone to be characterized as anecdotes. Here, as throughout the book, I have compromised by including such memorable desrciptions as Hannibal's crossing the Alps and Caesar's first landing in Britain, while generally seeking a quality of drollness, even at the expense of passing by many great military moments." 384 anecdotes, 514 pages, with Sources and Acknowledgements, and Index of Principal Names and Places; plus x pages Contents, and Introduction. Covers have partial crease at rear, otherwise clean and sound; text is strong and clean, though coloring at edges.
