"In this work, retired Army Colonel John House analyzes the use of war and the reasons it remains a fixture in human interactions. House describes a connection between wars and armies, and the people affected by them both." "The outcome of a war on land is the most important aspect of war, House maintains, because people occupy the land where wars are fought. People govern whether military forces impose themselves on other nations and control the component systems within military services. Providing conceptual descriptions of war and explaining the purpose and requirements of a nation's army within the description, House establishes an alternative method of thinking about the nature of war and how it effects those in society."--BOOK JACKET.
