About this title

Synopsis:

Gray, Colin S., War, Peace And Victory: Strategy And Statecraft For The Next Cent

From Library Journal:

This is an excellent work on diplomacy. Well-known as a knowledgeable though controversially conservative specialist on strategic thought, Gray here offers his prescriptions for appropriate foreign policy behavior. The book is well written and free of undue academic jargon. Although his focus is on U.S. security problems, Gray explores an impressive variety of strategic issues. Based on a wide range of historical examples, this book is not likely to become outdated in the next few years, as many comparable texts will. A useful acquisition for any international affairs collection.
