Editorial Reviews

Volume III of a five-volume series which addresses the recruiting, training, and motivating of military systems as well as those systems' interactions with civilian governments and with the greater society. In this volume, Karsten (U. of Pittsburgh) presents 17 essays that discuss how the camaraderie within small military units has figured in the effectiveness of skirmishes, naval engagements, and pitched battles, and how anything that disrupted that camaraderie was properly suspected of damaging military effectiveness. Approximately half of the essays deal with the United States and half with the experiences of other states and times. Lacks an index. Distributed by Taylor & Francis. Annotation c.
