The Theory and Practice of War Presented to Captain B.H. Liddell Hart

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+, Dust Jacket: Very Good. 1966. Frederick A Praeger.

This collection of essays by some of the world's leading military experts is offered as a tribute to Captain B.H. Liddle Hart on the occasion of his seventieth birthday. The authors are among the great number of pupils, disciples, admirers, and friends of Liddle Hart who have wished to acknowledge their own, and in many cases, their country's, debt to him and his work during nearly half a century. No assessment of his contribution to knowledge and the study of history is attempted herein, nor indeed, is it possible. Liddle Hart is still too prolific a thinker for such an attempt to be anything but premature.
