"A very good encyclopedia on military history but I only give it three stars because it focuses mainly "on land warfare in Europe and America, and aspects of naval and air history that bear directly on land operations"...because as we all know, wars only ever occured in Europe and America. The rest of the world was just peachy keen, thank you very much."
