This book charts the astonishingly rapid evolution of modern warfare. It traces the transformation of battle tactics, explains the scientific innovations that yielded the machine gun, the tank, and the atom bomb, and vividly renders the key victories that turned the tide of war. It also reiterates the slaughters and massacres in conflicts.

Joseph Cummins is the author of The War Chronicles: From CHariots to Flintlocks, History's Great Untold Stories and History's Greatest HIts, as well as Anything for a Vote: Dirty Tricks, Cheap Shots and October Surprises in US Presidential Campaigns. He has also edited two anthologies for Lyon's Press, Cannibals: shocking True Stories of the Last Taboo on Land and at Sea and The Greatest Search and Rescue Stories Ever Told, and written a novel, The Snow Train. He lives in Mapelwood, New Jersey.
