This 2005 book explores the evolution of Americans' first way of war, to show how war waged against Indian noncombatant population and agricultural resources became the method early Americans employed and, ultimately, defined their military heritage. The sanguinary story of the American conquest of the Indian peoples east of the Mississippi River helps demonstrate how early Americans embraced warfare shaped by extravagant violence and focused on conquest. Grenier provides a major revision in understanding the place of warfare directed on noncombatants in the American military tradition, and his conclusions are relevant to understand US 'special operations' in the War on Terror.
The tremendous growth in the number of accountancy students in the 1960s and 1970s inevitably created an automatic increase in demand for the provision of accountancy education. The public sector was not able to satisfy that demand; so the private sector came into its own. Indeed, the number of places in the public sector for accountancy tuition was already strictly limited even before the recent cutbacks in public expenditure on further education. These cutbacks have seriously affected the provision for overseas accountancy students in particular, and it is this area which has shown — and will continue to show — phenomenal growth in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
