In this entertaining and informative study, the author selects six military classes which he proposes as elite performers on the battlefields of history: The Longbowmen of England, Vikings, Riflemen of Saratoga, Zulus of Isandlawa, U-Boats of WW1, and Hitlers Panzers Commanders. Each is examined in an enthusiastic and informative style that will stimulate the reader to evaluate afresh the role of the specialist warrior in history.
