What is the syntax for searching Firefox History?

I remember reading an article about war a few days ago. When I search my extensive Firefox history for "war" (without the quotes) I get results for "warm", "warning", etc. I have searched Firefox/Mozilla support to no avail. Except for similar requests that resulted in suggested addins that no longer work on Firefox 24+.

Does anyone know of Firefox History search syntax information I can use?

Also, it would be nice if the Mozilla Support search allowed something like +History +search. Typing "history search" in Firefox support shows me everything about either history or search.

Thank you for your help

Add a space in front of the word, and another one after it.

You would need to use a Google site search to do an AND search.
