This book aims to serve the military profession, and so the
national interest, by helping to generate intelligent reform of how
the armed forces train, educate, and promote officers who shape our
military strategy and write our war plans. Readers will discover
the professional and intellectual improvement that wide reading in
the masters of historical narrative offers to them. The first
chapter, "Lessons Not Learned," surveys our strategic documents-and
their recent applications-and offers criticism and recommendations.
The second chapter, "Transformation Ballyhoo," evaluates our
current efforts at military transformation and offers an
alternative approach to rehabilitating our armed forces. The third
chapter, "The Brain of An Army," offers ideas on building a
first-rate Joint War College. Chapters four through six focus on
military campaigns: France 1940; Stalingrad; North Africa, 1940-43.
The theme is that moral and intellectual qualities determine the
fate of armies in war, and that material and bureaucratic machinery
are not nearly so vital as we seem to think nowadays.
