Charles R. Shrader

This research guide consists of an annotated bibliography of selected published items concentrating on military logistics in America from the colonial era to the present. This comprehensive reference is designed for libraries and scholars interested in American military history and for the use of academics and professionals at military service schools, staff colleges, and senior service colleges, with an interest in logistical doctrine and the logistical support of military operations. A narrative introduction includes a concise discussion of the major themes of American military logistics. A subsequent section notes the top 50 works in the field of military logistics history. Chapter 1 notes unpublished and published government documents dealing with military logistics, and manuscript collections of interest. The core bibliographical section consists of seven topical chapters (science of logistics, general, quartermaster, transportation, subsistence, ordnance, and procurement-mobilization) comprising 1996 entries representing the most significant books, dissertations, and articles in English on the topic of military logistics. The core chapters are organised chronologically with an introductory section comprising works covering more than one period.
