Usually in history it seems that the technologically advanced society has a greater advantage in warfare than more primitive societies. For most battles this seems to hold true; however, there are exceptions to this rule. This book examines three different battles in history where a primitive, tribal force was able to decisively defeat a better equipped, more advanced army. The Romans at the Battle of Teutoburg Forest; Custer and the Battle of the Little Bighorn and the Battle of Maiwand in the Second Afghan War are each examined to find what circumstances and advantages combined to produce a victory for a primitive force over a technologically advanced foe.
