520			_aThe American way of War - A History of United States Military Strategy and Policy. Strategy is defined as the theory of the use of military forces in combat or the theory of the use of combats for the object of the war. The real content of stategy is concerned not merely with war and battles but with the application or maintenance of force so that it contributes most effectively to the achievement of political objectives. The broadening of the American conception of strategy beyond a primarily military definition and the existence of a large and active circle of strategic writers distinguish the years since the Korean War from the earlier history of American military strategy and policy.
