"In 1991, General Norman Schwarzkopf drove Saddam Hussein out of
Kuwait using several specific strategies. Schwarzkopf established a
temporary supply base in the Saudi Arabian desert to form a base of
operations for the U.S. Seventh Corps and then used Marine and Arab
coalition allies in a pinning operation against Iraqi troops in
Kuwait while the Seventh Corps made a turning movement into the
Iraqi rear. Having captured its limited, geographic objective, the
coalition called a halt to the war. Schwarzkopf's strategies came
straight from Antoine-Henri Jomini's The Art of War, which is the
foundation of professional military education in the Western
world." - from the new introduction....Antoine Henri de Jomini's
The Art of War is considered by many to be the definitive work on
military strategy and tactics. His impact on professional military
thinking, doctrine and vocabulary is unparalleled by any other
military theoretician. Though authors like Clausewitz may be better
known to some, few can match the breadth of practical advice
offered by the man who served both Napoleon and the Russian
Tsar....This edition faithfully reproduces Jomini's seminal work,
beautifully reformatted and typeset and includes a new introduction
and brief chapter by chapter commentary.
