Spanning the recorded history of ground warfare from the ancient to the atomic age, this three-volume reference work documents it all - from generals to GI's, catapults to Kalashnikovs, ancient Israel to post-Soviet Chechnya. Included are more than 700 wars and battles, from the Aryan conquest of India to the Russian War in Chechnya; nearly 600 warrior biographies, from Alexander the Great to Colin Powell; nations and civilizations, from the Assyrians to the Zulus; and more than 100 survey essays on such subjects as tactics, weapons, organizations, home front issues, art and economics.

The work contains detailed coverage of wars, battles, sieges, revolts, kings, generals, dictators, terrorism, military medicine, chaplains, and the CIA amongst many others and also covers psychological and economic warfare, women in war, technology and war in literature.
