More than 1100 alphabetically arranged entries cover every aspect of American military history--from Bunker Hill in 1775 to the Gulf War in 1991. Using everything from brief entries to extensive essays, this one-volume treasure does much more than list battles and generals; it 'explores the changing nature of war and the military.' Of course, people, places, battles, and weapons are included, but those expected entries are nicely balanced by entries on logisitics, the laws of war, propaganda, anti-war movements, foreign trade, war plans, politics, literature, art, and movies. Essays on the history of land warfare and the disciplinary views of war are particularly good. Chambers (Major Problems in American Military History) has assembled 500 contributors, including noted historians John Keegan and Stephen Ambrose, to provide expert analysis, insight, and understanding of the American way of war. Although the accompanying maps are too few and too bland to be of much use, this book is otherwise comprehensive and lively. Highly recommended for all public libraries".--Col. William D.

Dora G. Ogle served as its business manager. The newspaper quickly became the voice of the white women's suffrage movement in Maryland, and regularly printed news and information from other suffrage organizations, becoming a motivational force by providing practical tips on how to organize and debate the suffrage amendment. The publication started by advocating broadly for women's suffrage, but eventually aligned with the National Woman's Party to push for a direct federal constitutional amendment. Statewide Reach: It included contributions from local suffrage leaders across the state, such as Howard County's Laura L. Byrne. The Just Government League also opened a coffee room and restaurant in Washington, D.C. near the headquarters of Alice Paul's Congressional Union for Woman Suffrage. When the Nineteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution was ratified in 1920, the Maryland Suffrage News ceased publication. ; These are the copies received by Mrs. R E. Root (Mary Keziah Batcheller-Root,1880-1965), 29 Madison St., Annapolis, Maryland, whose subscription began in March of 1915. She was the wife of Dr. Ralph Eugene Root (1881-1960), a prominent American mathematician and educator. He served as a Professor of Mathematics and Mechanics in the Postgraduate School at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland. ; "It was on December 28, 1904, at Storm Lake, this state, that Dr. Ralph Eugene Root was united in marriage to Mary K. Batcheller, who was born in Portland tonwship, this county, daughter of Alexander F. and Mary C. (Ballou) Batcheller, prominent residents of that community, whose last days were spent at Council Bluffs. [. . .] Mary K. Batcheller received her schooling in the high school at Hawarden, in the high school at Larabee and at the Iowa State Normal at Cedar Falls, after which for six years she taught school in and around Akron and was thus engaged at the time of her marriage to Doctor Root. To that union four children have been born, Olive, Lloyd, Charlotte and Ellis.
