Böcker av Edward J. Erickson

In-depth study of Kipling's military poems. Includes Tommy, The Last of the Light Brigade and The Absent-Minded Beggar, which highlight the challenges faced by soldiers and returning veterans.

Covering the period from 1878-1915, Ottomans and Armenians is a military history of the Ottoman army and the counterinsurgency campaigns it waged in the last days of the Ottoman empire.

Structured around four case studies, this volume examines how the Ottoman Army was able to evolve and maintain a high level of overall combat effectiveness, despite the primitive nature of the Ottoman State during the First World War. It is intended for students of the First World War, military history and strategic studies in general.
