Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : Fine. Etat de la jaquette : Good. Very Large Book. In the hundred years between the end of the Napoleonic Wars and the onset of World War I, the most cataclysmic military conflict fought throughout the entire world was the American Civil War. It was also a terrifying omen of the horrors of modern warfare. Tactics which were later employed in both the Boer War and World War I- trench warfare, war of attrition, propaganda, economic warfare and naval blockade- were an integral part of the American Civil War. Technical advances included ironclad ships such as the Monitor, the Gatling gun and aerial observation, as well as the retarding influence of the prisoner-of-war camp. Conscription was also employed for the first time in American history in the War Between the States, which cost more American lives in the course of its four years than the two World Wars, Korea and Vietnam combined.
