This has been used as a text at the United States Military Academy in the History of Military Art for more than 50 years.. It shows by annotated maps how the major battles were fought by the great captains and how they used the principles of war to win the battles and how their opponents failed to employ the principles war which resulted in their defeat.

Wonderful books.

Fortunate to have inherited these 2 books..

Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2013

And though I won't brag (much), I have to say these are the DEFINITIVE works on U.S. military battles and tactics, books that all other military atlas books only hope to come close to in accuracy, detail, and readability. Many folks complain about the reprint version, but their complaints are unfounded because most folks that buy these are unskilled in the arts of military tactics. In fact, the complaint I read were pretty much written by morons.

So, if you see either of these works, buy them immediately! They are well worth the price!

Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2015

I grew up reading the West Point Atlas of American Wars and, although it's maps have various issues, it's the best way to gain a balanced visualization of the ebb and flow of the main campaigns in each of the conflicts. At the breakup of my parents' library, I had to grab this set before my brother could claim it.

Following American Combatants through Battle

Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2001

For the student of U.S. military history and battle tactics, this book is invaluable. Every battle fought by American forces from the Colonial Wars of 1758 through Korea (in my edition) is reviewed with a tightly worded, fully descriptive and reasonably objective narrative on the page next to the map of the battle. Combat units are broken down with clear unit designations and movement lines indicating disposition. While the maps are not topographic, they do indicate terrain features which help the reader understand the impact terrain had on a particular battle's outcome.
Our military history study group finds the text and maps easy to follow and interpret. While many books go into greater depth on any given battle (i.e., leadership, morale, logistics, the political environment, etc.), they lack sufficient maps that illustrate various troop movements at specific times during the engagement. This book solves that problem and does so brilliantly.
