In the nineteenth century, strategy changed forever. Railways accelerated mobilization. Telegraph lines compressed command. Industrial production multiplied firepower. War shifted from dynastic campaigns to national systems. This book explores how that transformation happened. From Napoleon’s operational art to the Prussian General Staff. From the Russian Campaign to the American Civil War.
