Tracing the evolution of the U. S. Army throughout American history, the authors of this four-volume series show that there is no such thing as a "traditional" U. S. military policy. Rather, the laws that authorize, empower, and govern the U. S. armed forces emerged from long-standing debates and a series of legislative compromises between 1903 and 1940. Volume II focuses on the laws enacted in the early 20th century that transformed the Army. | The Evolution of U. S. Military Policy from the Constitution to the Present by Sean M.
