Title: The Cliff Notes of military history
Review: The "Essential Histories" series from Osprey could easily be compared to the Cliff Notes series. They'll give you a nice introduction to a topic you are not familiar with, but no real depth. Most volumns are under 100 pages; therefore, don't expect many "man in the trenches" stories.This book is what this series does best: present a little understood period of military history with some background, goals of participants, and outcome.
