Books with author Rachel Wise

David and Rachel Wise were not cat lovers prior to being adopted by three 6-day old, female Tuxedo Kittens, Curly, BeeBee and Little One. In their forty years of marriage they had three small dogs; Tinker Bell, adopted from the Humane Society; Muffin, a gray toy Poodle Rachel won at a pet shop; then Buffy, an apricot Poodle from the Humane Society. The Wise's can't count the number of stray cats and dogs left near their home in the country who eventually found either the front or the back door.

About the Book Military history texts discuss the historical record of armed conflict in the history of humanity, its impact on people, societies, and their cultures. Some fundamental subjects of military history study are the causes of war, its social and cultural foundations, military doctrines, logistics, leadership, technology, strategy, and tactics used, and how these have developed over time. Thematic divisions of military history may include: Ancient warfare, Medieval warfare, Gunpowder warfare, Industrial warfare, and Modern warfare.Also in this Book Military strategy texts present ideas for military organizations to achieve their desired strategic goals. Military strategy discusses the planning and conduct of campaigns, the movement and disposition of forces, and how to deceive the enemy. Carl von Clausewitz (1780–1831), defined military strategy as "the employment of battles to gain the end of war." B. H. Liddell Hart defined strategy as "the art of distributing and applying military means to fulfill the ends of policy", which places more emphasis on political aims relative to military goals. Sun Tzu (544-496 BC) is the father of Eastern military strategy and greatly influenced Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Vietnamese war tactics. His book The Art of War has been very popular and has seen practical implementation in Western societies. And in this Book Books on the military history of the United States span a period of more than two centuries, over which the United States evolved from a rebellious colony of Great Britain (the American War of Independence, 1775–1783), through the disastrous American Civil War (1861–1865), late but vital participation in World War 1 (1917-18), and a critical role in World War II (1941–1945), to the world's foremost superpower from the late 20th century to present.
