I picked it up from the library last weekend and am well past the half-way point. Thanks for the recommendation for War Made New.

It was an excellent read, and covered a few battles in a couple of eras I wasn't that familiar with (1400s and 1880-WWI). His focus is on the "revolution in military affairs" concept, and he writes a good book. Thanks for your comment!

The "History of Military Technology" sounds like it would be an interesting course. Amber and I bought the DVD version of <a href="http://www.teach12.com/ttcx/coursedesclong2.aspx?cid=3757&id=3757&pc=History%20-%20Ancient%20and%20Medieval" rel="nofollow">Great Battles of the Ancient World</a> and we've been slowly working our way through the lectures and enjoying them very much.
