Reviews
"After briefly surveying the militia system in early New England, the author analyzes the sermons delivered on training days and concludes that with their biblical metaphors of struggle, defensiveness, and warfare the sermons played as great a role as drill in forming New England's spirit of resistance and warfare." Journal of the Early Republic, "The 'intertwined aims' were to 'trace the establishment and development of the New England colonial military system,' to 'delineate the rituals' of its 'training days,' and to 'investigate the military sermons's rhetoric and its role in shaping' a 'marital attitude.' In that context words and ideas turned out to have not only pointed meaning but long-running consequences." American Literature

Synopsis
This comprehensive work explores the militia system and its role in the development of colonial New England. Ahearn contends that the militia and the military sermon created an atmosphere of Christian soldiery and warfare that exercised a powerful, long-lasting hold upon New Englanders. Ministers reinforced martial drill and militancy in their sermons. The language and attitudes of warfare became part of the society. New England's military sermons deeply encoded the biblical language of Christian warfare into the patterns of everyday life and into the fabric of American consciousness; its influence continues to the present day. The study is organized into three major sections. The first part introduces the New England colonial institution of the part-time military, furnishing an overview of origins, organization, and operation. Part Two demonstrates the ways in which the tradition of aggressive martial discourse helped to galvanize colonists to militant resistance and prompted New England's aggressive responses to real or perceived enemies in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The third part of the book addresses the main branchings in the pattern of martial argument in the third quarter of the eighteenth century, as well as three different strands of the military sermon. The Rhetoric of War is a unique study that will be of value to students of American history, religion, and rhetoric.
