Officers in the American Expeditionary Forces believed that how they conducted war in France, particularly in 1918, validated the strategic and operational approaches implemented by their predecessors under Ulysses S. Grant in 1863-1865.
Assessing the mixed lessons learned from the American Civil War, Dr. Mitch Klingenberg dissects the uniquely American way of theorizing – and waging – large-scale war.
