Descriptionof Infantry
Manufacturer

The infantry always bears the brunt, said Field Marshal Wavell in 1945. The poor damned infantry, the grunts on the ground, the infantry were often seen as the humble, even shunned, relatives of the others, from cavalry to tanks. This book is their story, a story from the dawn of human conflict to the present day, a study that looks at fighting, weapons, recruitment, contexts and impacts worldwide. The infantry as a wave of attack and firepower, as a driving force in conflicts between states and in civil wars, in symmetrical and asymmetrical wars, is considered, as are the various developmental reports that are offered. The infantry plays a central role in the military and in combat, and has also taken on many non-combatant roles, particularly as an extension of the government. In fact, the infantry can be crucial to political history and the building of a nation, from coups d'état to legendary battles.
