Description
|
|
|
|
The violent nationalism and ethnic hatred that fueled the Balkan wars of the 1990s, the seemingly perpetual hostilities between Israel and its Arab neighbors, and even the much friendlier rivalry between modern-day England and France all have their origins in epic struggles of earlier eras. This heavily illustrated history from the author of the two-volume The War Chronicles guides us through 14 of history's longest-running conflicts, from ancient Greece to contemporary Sudan via the Jewish diaspora, medieval France, the Ottoman Empire, the Seminole wars, the British in Afghanistan, Vietnam, and Northern Ireland.
