Synopsis:
Intends to construct an all-embracing theory of how war works. This title is full of sharp observation, biting irony, and memorable phrases, the most famous being, 'war is a continuation of politics by other means'.
From the Back Cover: The growing interest in Clausewitz's theoretical, political and historical writings in recent years suggested that the time had come for an entirely new translation. We have based our work on the first edition of 1832, supplemented by the annotated German text published by Professor Werner Hahlweg in 1952, except where obscurities in the original edition-which Clausewitz himself never reviewed-made it seem advisable to accept later emendations.
