The two-volume Chief of Staff examines the history, development,
and role of the military duty position of the chief of staff. Many
books have studied history's great commanders and the art of
command. None have focused exclusively on the chief of staff −the
key staff officer responsible for translating the ideas of the
commander into practical plans that common soldiers can execute
successfully on the battlefield. In some cases, it is almost
impossible to think of certain great commanders without also
thinking of their chief of staff. Napoleon’s chief of staff
Berthier and Eisenhower’s chief of staff Bedell Smith are two
examples that are profiled in this work. Zabecki and his
collaborators examine the history, development, and role of the
chief of staff primarily through profiles of the most important
practitioners of the art. These books are published in co-operation
with the Association of the United States Army.
