“In a lively and perceptive introductory essay, Stokesbury sketches the ever-changing circumstances, tools, and social purposes of warfare to reveal its essential continuity of principle. In the series of essays that follow, Blumenson casts a wide net–over ‘Some Masters of the Art’ (Sulla, Saxe, Thomas, and Huebner, among others); over ‘Masters of Mobile Warfare’ (Iberville, Crook, Wolseley, Hart, Montgomery, and Patton); over ‘Coalition Warfare’ (Rochambeau, Eisenhower, and various command problems and situations); and over special problems such as military obedience, Hitler and his generals, and the ‘maverick’ military leader.
“For the general reader, this book will provide a fascinating trip across historical fields of battle; for the military professional or student of military history, it should strike sparks of recognition and illumination, and even touch a few nerve endings in the process. One can hardly ask for more.”
–Col John G. Thompson, USAWC
