When questioned about course reading materials and texts, there was little comm…

  • Culture, Combat, and Colonialism in Eighteenth- and Nineteenth-Century India

    Randolf G S CooperARTICLEThe International History Review2005

    military historians made a great effort during the 1990s to differentiate revolutions in military affairs from military revolutions.1 However, the events of 11 September 2001 and the invasion of Iraq hastened a collective change in focus.
