Michael Howard OM, CH, CBE, MC was formerly Chichele Professor of the History of War and Regius Professor of Modern History at the University of Oxford.
The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, and the possibility of more such operations in future, make Michael Howard's book of the greatest importance. It should be read not only by analysts, but by every concerned Western citizen.
(Anatol Lieven, author of Ethical Realism: A Vision for America's Role in the World)This is a book that everyone should read. It is a short, elegant masterpiece, where every chapter has the cliffhanger ending of peace being declared, only to be followed by a new phase of war, more awful than that which had gone before.
(James Gow, professor of international peace and security, King's College London)Lucid, witty, and trenchant... these anti-war theories could hardly be more interestingly presented.
(Royal United Services Institute Journal)So well written that it could be read as a novel-except few novels are so interesting. To take one strand of history and unravel it in this way is not only a service to historians but to the ordinary bus-riding liberal anxious to clarify his own thought.
