Masters of Battle: Selected Great Warrior Classes by John Wilcox
In this study of military history, the author has selected six warrior classes which, for him, showed special talents in their own era: the longbowmen of England, the Vikings, the riflemen of Saratoga, the Zulus, the U-boat captains of the Kaiser and the German tank commanders of Hitler's Reich. He describes the skills and strategies of these charismatic warriors in detail. Ranging in breadth from the archers of Crecy to the Panzer tank commanders of World War II, the book offers contrasts in period, traditions, strategies and achievements of all six classes.
