“Millett has written an exceptionally able biography of General Robert L. Bullard, the First World War commander whose military career spans a crucial time in army development in the U.S. The demanding research that is necessary for thorough treatment has been done, and this raw material has been put together in a clearly written study that is rich in detail and sound in analysis.”–Choice

This review is from: The General: Robert L. Bullard and Officership in the United States Army, 1881-1925 (Contributions in Military Studies) (Hardcover)
Lieut. Gen. Robert Lee Bullard, United States Army, whose military career began in 1881 and ended in 1925, served during the formative period in history of American military policy and the Army. Most important, Bullard lived through the crucial phase of the professionalization of the United States Army officer corps. Bullard's career illuminates the process by which one man was integrated into the occupation of Army officer and came to hold high responsibility in his profession. It also reveals the fundamental changes in officer ship which accompanied America's emergence as a self-conscious world power, industrial nation, and an occupationally specialized society.
