About this book

Provides both an introduction and a cross-section of the field, proposing why one should, and how one might, study the literature of war. Contributors offer samplings from the vast body of war-related literature and film, from the Iliad and Shakespeare to documentary films about the wars in Iraq in Afghanistan in the first decade of the 21st century. --From publisher description.
