Since war is among the oldest of human activities - long antedating the invention of writing - presumably the earliest attempts to record it took the form of poems or songs that were performed on suitable occasions. However revealing or inspiring, poems are no substitute for military theory and written history.
Across more than 1000 pages with over 600 colour maps, The Encyclopedia of Warfare presents the reader with more than 5000 entries - arranged chronologically - on wars, campaigns, empires, rebellions and counter-insurgencies of almost five millennia of global conflict.
