Description

John S. Brown (fr); William Gardner Bell (au). This book reflects two major themes of the U.S. Army’s commemoration: the role of the soldier-statesmen of the Revolution in the creation of our government, & the constitutional principle of civilian control of the military. This edition continues to recognize those twin legacies. As this volume carries us through the roll of the Secretaries of War & the Secretaries of the Army, it provides insights into the character & background of those who have served as the Army’s most senior official. It also honors them for their contributions as eminent leaders in the history of the Army & in the history of the nation. Each secretary is shown in a full-page color portrait.
