Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The "Dictionary of Battles" was originally compiled by Thomas Benfield Harbottle around the turn of the century, and has been updated to include all twentieth-century military operations from the Boer Wars through Vietnam. It also includes the sieges, raids, and relatively minor actions of important wars, as these tactical moves often led to the main battles. Each entry provides this essential data: the war or campaign of which the battle was a part; the date it began; who commanded how many men on each side; the tactics and sometimes the weapons employed; who won; the casualties; and where it could be determined, the ultimate outcome. The entries have been cross-referenced to indicate other associated battles, where appropriate.

Thoroughly vetted by an expert board of period and regional experts, this dictionary offers easy to find A-Z entries that cover conflicts from practically every era and place of human history. In addition to exhaustive coverage of World War II, World War I, the American Civil War, medieval wars, and conflicts during the classical era, this dictionary covers battles fought in pre-modern Africa, the Middle East, Ancient and Medieval India, China, and Japan, and early meso-American warfare as well.
