Cloth. Condición: Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. Reprint. Hardback Acts of War: The Behaviour of Men in Battle illustrated with black and white plates 436pp The Peloponnesian War. The Hundred Years' War. The Napoleonic Wars. The Sino-Japanese War. World Wars I and II. Korea, and Vietnam. For centuries, men have waged war among themselves, filling history with accounts of armies and battles, victories and defeats. From General William T. Sherman, we know that "war is hell;' but just what does war feel like to the men who fight it? How does it change them? And what do its extreme conditions reveal about men's basic instincts, their courage and fear, aggression and flight, self-sacrifice and self-preservation? In this brilliantly documented volume, military historian Richard Holmes examines these questions and others to present a detailed portrait of the men on the firing line. Drawing both on written accounts of war over the past two centuries, and on spoken recollections of veterans from two World Wars, Korea, Vietnam, the Falklands, and the Arab-Israeli conflicts, Holmes searches for clues to understand combat psychology and its postwar emotional legacy. He also brings together a unique range of war memoirs, histories, anecdotes ~and battlefront news reports. Acts of War builds a compelling picture of the elements that motivate soldiers and keep them going in the face of fatigue, fear, and death. With poignant insight, Holmes deals with the humiliation of basic training, the influence of religion and background, the critical effect of personal leadership, the soldier's attitude toward fear, the constant threat of death or disfiguration, the intense bonds forged with comrades, and the breakdown of a man's will to go on with the fight. He also casts doubts on some widely held beliefs concerning the soldier's conduct under stress. We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions, Reference books ,and all types of Academic Literature.).
