Another volume in Praeger's "The Military Profession" series,
this revised edition of the 1984 Praeger classic tells the story of
infantry in the 20th century and its impact on the major conflicts
of our time. Its purpose is to provide the reader--whether
infantryman or not--with hitherto unavailable insights on the role
that infantry plays in the larger battle and how that has helped
shape the world that we live in today. Unique aspects of the book
include the treatment of technical issues in non-technical
language, the extensive use of German and French sources generally
unavailable to the English-speaking reader, and the shattering of
some long-cherished myths. Combat motivation and combat refusal,
the role played by small units (such as the squad and fire team),
the role of infantry in the Blitzkrieg, and many other issues often
papered over in the literature of infantry are discussed and
analyzed in detail in this revised edition.
