MILITARY GEOGRAPHY
    FOR PROFESSIONALS AND THE PUBLIC

About the Author

John M. Collins, who is currently a Distinguished Visiting Research Fellow at the National Defense University, has devoted his entire adult life to military affairs. He joined the U.S. Army as a private in 1942, retired as a colonel in 1972 after wartime service in Europe, Korea, and Vietnam, then spent the next 24 years as Senior Specialist in National Defense at the Library of Congress. He earned a Master's Degree in geography at Clark University, Worcester, Massachusetts, in 1951, and applied lessons learned to practical problems throughout the rest of his career. Ten previous books on military subjects gained wide respect in the United States and abroad; some were variously translated into Russian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.
