Patterson and William J. Mitchel. The book "America's Armed Forces A History" by James T. Patterson and William J. Mitchell provides a comprehensive overview of the history of the United States military from its founding to the present day. The authors explore how the armed forces have evolved over time, from the early days of the Continental Army to the modern-day military, highlighting key events, technological advancements, and the impact of war on American society. They argue that understanding the development of military technology is crucial to grasping the nature of modern warfare and the role of the armed forces in shaping the world we live in today. The book begins with an examination of the early years of the Continental Army, established in 17754, and how it grew into a powerful force during the Revolutionary War. The authors then delve into the challenges faced by the young nation, including the Indian Wars, the Mexican-American War, and the Civil War, which had a profound impact on the development of the military. They also discuss the evolution of technology, from the introduction of the telegraph to the advent of nuclear weapons, and how these advancements have influenced the way wars are fought. One of the central themes of the book is the importance of understanding the process of technological evolution in warfare. The authors argue that this is essential for grasping the nature of modern warfare and the role of the armed forces in shaping the world we live in today.
