Military historian John Keegan's groundbreaking analysis of combat
and warfare
The Face of Battle is military history from the battlefield: a look
at the direct experience of individuals at the "point of maximum
danger." Without the myth-making elements of rhetoric and
xenophobia, and breaking away from the stylized format of battle
descriptions, John Keegan has written what is probably the
definitive model for military historians. And in his scrupulous
reassessment of three battles representative of three different
time periods, he manages to convey what the experience of combat
meant for the participants, whether they were facing the arrow
cloud at the battle of Agincourt, the musket balls at Waterloo, or
the steel rain of the Somme.
