Première et seule édition de cet "abrégé" de… "L'Art de la Guerre" de Chastenet de Puységur édité par le baron de Traverse. "The universal theory of war was to be derived from historical observation. Puységur dismissed the challenge of historical change. Despite all changes in armament, the science and art of war remained the same at all times. Expressing neo-classical conceptions [he] emphasized that the successes of all the great generals throughout history had been the result of adherence to the universal rules of war." [Gat The Origins of Military Thought, p.34.]. Petit cachet armorié au noir sur le titre.
