Combined Arms Warfare in the Twentieth Century
A very clear, readable overview on the development of combined arms. Covers the immediate pre-war context of WWI, the Great War itself, interwar period, WWII, limited wars of the Cold War and the 1990's.
I read this so I'd have a better understanding of basic military concepts in my first semester of grad school. While I let my eyes glaze over the diagrams and a few more detailed passages, I came out of the book with a better vocabulary and a better appreciation of recent and historical conflicts from a tactical perspective. It's good to know how the development of new tech and doctrine shape, and are shaped by, wars.
This book is very complimentary to any study of major conflict or international relations in general.
