Trade Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket - Wraps. An important study of the war by a career officer, applying Clausewitz's principles to the actual conduct of the war.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - 'This important book is one man's critical analysis of American strategy in the Vietnam war. That man, Harry Summers, is an active Army officer who began professional life as an enlisted soldier, knows personally the bayonet-point reality of war, and has thought widely about strategic issues. His commitment to the nation and Army he serves is unstinting.' '. Colonel Summers has focused his attention at that point in the strategic continuum where military strategy and national policy come together.

DeWitt C. Smith, Jr. Lieutenant General, United States Army (Retired).…
