摘要

In The Last Full Measure, author Michael Stephenson analyzes a topic that is central to warfare but seldom discussed: how soldiers have died in combat. Stephenson, the former editor of the Military Book Club and the author of a book on the Revolutionary War examines how soldiers met their deaths throughout history. His goal is to explain this topic in a professional, nonsensational, and sensitive manner, and demonstrate that the battlefield realities were often harsher than the romanticized visions and sanitized histories people are accustomed to reading. He argues that "the stench and screams give way to rousing images. The death agonies settle into the encouraging heroic gestures of the war memorial and the movies." Overall, the author succeeds in his goal anc provides the reader a lasting image of combat s harsh realities and a unique analysis of war.
