Summary: | Dederer argues that by 1775 Americans' view on war, the composition and role of their armed forces, and how these forces would be employed were intrinsically wedded to all aspects of colonial culture and society. Further, he demonstrates that these conceptions were indelibly etched and can be seen in American military culture today. Annotation(c) 2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com) |
