- Summary
- "Warrior Nation explores the way in which images of battle, both literary and visual, have been constructed in fiction and popular culture since 1850. Using a wide range of media, Michael Paris focuses on how war has been 'sold' to boys and young men and examines the warrior as a masculine ideal."--Jacket.
