Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1913 edition. Excerpt: ... THE BATTLE OF MEGIDDO INTRODUCTION The Battle of Megiddo on May 15th, 1479 B.C. between the Egyptians under Thutmose III and the allied forces of the Syrian states is the first battle in history which we can study in any detail. Most of the ancient oriental accounts of battles are mere statements of the forces engaged and of the outcome of the conflicts. Among the Egyptian records, however, there are preserved in considerable detail the narratives of two or three engagements from which we can gather, with greater or less clearness, the general plan of each battle, the disposition of the troops and the manoeuvres of the opposing armies.1 So far these battles have been studied either without reference to the topography of the battlefields, or with insufficient data regarding the physical features of the area of operations and the bearing they must have had on the course of the engagement. In the following discussion of the Battle of Megiddo it has been my endeavor to interpret the scanty records of the conflict preserved in hieroglyphic in the light of the topography of the region, which I studied on two visits to the battlefield in the summers of 1909 and 1912. On those two occasions I mide a series of surveys and took a number of photographs which are here reproduced. They include a sufficient number of views to bear out my observations on the topography which are contained in the text of this discussion. I have used as the basis of my plan of the battlefield the excellent map in Schumacher's Tell el-Mutesellim, Band II, adding myself certain details not found on the original, especially the configuration of the hills to the west and I Besides the Battle of Megiddo, compare, for the Battle of Kadesh, Breasted, Battle of Kadeih, and for...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Battle of Megiddo was not only the last large cavalry offensive in world history, but also a tribute to combined arms operations fostered over the course of the First World War. Fought between 19-25 September 1918, it was the final Allied offensive of the Sinai and Palestine Campaign. The contending forces were the British Empires EEF (Egyptian Expeditionary Force) of three infantry and one mounted corps pitted against the Ottoman-German Yildirim Army Group which numbered three weak armies with the approximate total strength of a single enemy corps. Comparable to what General Erich von Ludendorff called the Black Day of the German Army (opening of the Battle of Amiens, 8 August 1918) on the Western Front, the complete Ottoman defeat would have been impossible without the application of superior logistics. Whilst Megiddo did not determine the outcome of the war in the Middle East, the ramifications of the victory decisively shaped the post-war world in the region.

Book excerpt: As depicted in the great film Lawrence of Arabia, General Allenby planned a swift campaign that would knock Turkey out of World War I. His Desert Mounted Corps succeeded in sweeping through the Turkish lines in an action which was to take them all the way to Damascus, supported on their right flank by Lawrence and his Arab irregulars. The lasting legacy of the battle of Megiddo was that it revealed the potential of a modern war of movement, producing a profound change in military thought and tactics.

As depicted in the great film Lawrence of Arabia, General Allenby planned a swift campaign that would knock Turkey out of World War I. His Desert Mounted Corps succeeded in sweeping through the Turkish lines in an action which was to take them all the way to Damascus, supported on their right flank by Lawrence and his Arab irregulars. Allenby's Egyptian Expeditionary Force had achieved the breakthrough in Palestine that commanders on the Western Front had only dreamed of. Turkey's war was over, and the days of the tottering Ottoman Empire were numbered. The lasting legacy of the battle of Megiddo was that it revealed the potential of a modern war of movement, producing a profound change in military thought and tactics. Here, Bryan Perrett examines this campaign, possibly the most successful of World War I, in detail. The important roles of the RAF, irregular Arab forces, armored cars and cavalry are all explained, and the impressive effects of their co-operation analyzed. Bryan Perrett's readable style, his close attention to detail and his obvious familiarity with the period make this a truly fascinating book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The typical military history presents a chronicle of battles and wars and the commanders and troops who fought them. This book takes a different approach. It presents battles and wars and people aplenty, but they are not its ultimate subjects. This book is about the turning points that not only make military history dynamic but crucial to the story of humanity and civilization. This book is about the decisions, acts, innovations, errors, ideas, successes, and failures that shaped the evolution of military art and science—strategy, tactics, and technology—and, in doing so, shaped the course of world history. Here are the 100 points—from the birth of warfare in the Battle of Megiddo, 1457 BC, to the ongoing evolution of military history on its newest battlefield, cyberspace—at which the path of the warrior decisively turned on its long journey to where we find ourselves today.

Download or read book Megiddos Shadow written by Arthur Slade and published by HarperTrophy. This book was released on 2008-02-18 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edward is sixteen and too young to enlist for World War I, but he is old enough to feel a dangerous combination of emotions: revenge—against the Germans who killed his older brother; and romanticism—about the glory and heroism that Edward feels are the ideals of war.To his disappointment, Edward is assigned horse-training duty in England, far from the front lines, where he is consoled only by his horse and the friendship of a young nurse. Things change when he is sent to fight in Palestine, where he finds that the horrors of war and the real meaning of courage are nothing like what he imagined. Intelligent, provocative and as powerful as any cavalry charge, Megiddo’s Shadow deserves every accolade.
