Military science is far from an exact science, as Grant, Rommel,
Clausewitz, Tolstoy, and other chroniclers of war have long argued. The
tide of battle often depends on human factors—bad information,
miscalculations, happy guesses, thorough planning—and on quirks of
weather, timing, or faulty equipment. By providing all relevant
information that Napoleon, Lee, Washington, and Henry V had at the
ready, Yours to Reason Why isolates the moments when it seemed
that victory could go to either side, and analyzes the decisions at the
scene of ten famous battles—from Hastings and Waterloo to Gettysburg
and Anzio. You must decide if Napoleon advances into Belgium or stands
on the defensive, when to hit the beach at Anzio with air support,
whether you follow Stonewall Jackson's advice to attack aggressively at
Chancellorsville. William Seymour provides hundreds of maps, detail on
terrain and armaments, the psychology of the generals, and complete
information on troop strength and their readiness to fight. To enter
these pages is to marshal famous armies, to be for a moment captain of
their fates, and to match wits with the generals whose decisions made
history.
