On the Road to Total War The American Civil War and the German Wars of Unification, 1861-1871

On the Road to Total War is a collection of essays which attempt to trace the roots and development of total industrialized warfare (which terrorizes citizens and soliders alike). International scholars focus on the social, political, economic, and cultural aspects and on the societal impacts of the American Civil War and the German Wars of Unification. Mass mobilization of people and resources and growing nationalism led to this totalization of war in nineteenth century industrialized nations.Förster, Stig is the author of 'On the Road to Total War The American Civil War and the German Wars of Unification, 1861-1871' with ISBN 9780521521192 and ISBN 052152119X.
