Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Very good condition gray cloth boards with gold front cover lettering and decoration with gold spine lettering contained within a blue and gold square block border. Includes List of Other Books by C.S. Forester; A Final Note; and Index. Illustrated with two-color front and rear endpapers. "It might be expected that a belligerent's war aims should bear some relationship to the grievances or ambitions that led to the war. It might even be expected that the belligerent's war plans shold bear some relationship to his war aims. Yet history has shown that these relationships are frequently of the slightest. as a war progresses, the original issues tend to become obscured and the war plans more complicated - as need hardly be pointed out to a generation that has seen American soldiers fighting Italians in Africa in a conflict that originated in a boundary dispute between Germany and Poland. Nor need it be stressed that there are frequently profound differences between the real and the ostensible causes of a war, and wide divergences between the real and the ostensible war aims. And, with war contemplated or entered upon, the military ideas of the politicians may differ radically from those of the soldiers and sailors. so that plans and execution may be tortuous or ineffectual or apparently motiveless. Mr. Madison's message to Congress of June 1, 1812, which resulted in a declaration of war on June 18, stated the grievances of the United States. The first was the practice of impressment by British ships of war of seamen from American ships. The next grievance was the habit of British ships violating the sovereignty of American territorial waters.Next came the question of the Orders in Council and their sweeping regulation of all trade with the continent of Europe." - excerpt from Chapter 1.
