Item description from seller

Why Don't We Learn From History? by B H Liddell Hart; Published by George Allen and Unwin Ltd./ P E N Books, 1944. 1st edition, 2nd printing, September 1944. hardcover. "A must read for both the people & the leaders of ALL the dictatorial regimes around the world (democracies would also surely benefit). A book for all times to come. His understanding & explanation of where the real power lies is outstanding. What s breathtaking is how relevent his arguments are today & how strikingly similar the working of all governments turn out to be (as generalized by Hart). He deals with issues such as 'patterns & psychology of dictatorship', 'power politics in a democracy' & lastly the the 'desire for power' & 'War'."--Ali S. Burki. Summary: Preface Foreword Part 1: History & truth Part 2: Government & freedom Part 3: War & peace Conclusions "some cover wear, browning, bookplate inside, paper browning as tyical with wartime issue".
