Books by Michael S. Neiberg

In "The First Battle of the Marne" French and British forces stopped the initial German drive on Paris in 1914. The Second Battle of the Marne marks the point at which the Allied armies stopped the massive German Ludendorff Offensives and turned to offensive operations themselves. This work gives an account of the bloody events of those days.

In his examination of the Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC), Michael Neiberg argues that the creation of officer education programs on civilian campuses emanates from a traditional American belief (which he traces to the colonial period) in the active participation of civilians in military affairs.

This is the story of the evolution of the citizen army throughout Western nations during the nineteenth century and up through World War I.

Despair at Gallipoli. Victory at Vimy Ridge. A European generation lost, an American spirit found. The First World War, the deadly herald of a new era, continues to captivate readers. In this lively book, Neiberg offers a concise history based on the latest research and insights into the soldiers, commanders, battles, and legacies of the Great War.

Despite the catastrophic effects of war, wars have also proved to be instrumental to long-term change in world history. This text is the first of its kind to survey how warfare has developed from ancient times to the present day.
