Mr. Bill Thayer's contribution to West Point and Army History online resources is singularly impressive.
A long sought for online availability of Colonel William A Ganoe's - The History of the United States Army (1924/1942)... is now a reality!.....My dad's old deteriorating copy on my bookshelf is almost too fragile to risk reading casually. Thanks, Sir!
The History of the United States Army, by William Addleman Ganoe, Colonel of Infantry, United States Army
http://penelope.uchicago.edu/Thayer/E/Gazetteer/Places/America/United_States/_Topics/history/_Texts/GANUSA/home.html
He also provides a link to Ganoe's USMA obituary
Here is a composite tribute to the Colonel; whose words still warns us of the American proclivity for unpreparedness in times of peace; and now under the current administration; in the midst of unrecognized war....Happy 4th, America!
