Overview
This famous classic, first published in 1851 under the title "Fifteen Decisive Battles of the World from Marathon to Waterloo," spans 2, 300 years of human history. It is scholarly and authoritative, as well as fair. Creasy's deductions as to the effects of the battles on history are profound. This is a revised 1899 edition by Speed, who added chapters on Gettysburg, Sedan, Santiago and Manila.
