"A terrific demonstration of the fresh insights cultural analysis can bring to military history. The fascinating range of case studies shows that cultures of war are recoverable—and well worth recovering—from Assyrian times to the present and from all over the globe." - Stephen Morillo,Professor of History, Wabash College "This book provides the best introduction yet published to the wide and exciting study of war and culture. Readers interested in war, culture, and their roles in global history will find here some of the best current research and writing on the topic." - Michael S. Neiberg,author of Dance of the Furies "No future discussion of this fraught topic will be complete without this collection of essays. Vivid arguments, telling points, striking reformulations: this will be a standard work for decades." - Robert Citino,author of The German Way of War: From the Thirty Years' War to the Third Reich
