Composite Warfare (Paperback)

Following the bestselling first edition of this groundbreaking book, the face of conflict and war has undergone numerous changes. New and even more destructive technologies, the role of partisans, the logistical sustainability of forces, the increased weaponization of the media and diplomacy have all become commonplace.p>The second edition is complemented by two forewords written by notable generals who once oversaw the author during operations. In the words of Brig Gen Alaxander, ‘Mobility of mind and manoeuvre and a grasp of the importance of the seven Pillars of State, as elucidated in Composite Warfare, are more essential to such thinking today than were the contents of Lawrence’s Seven Pillars of Wisdom to revolutionary war theorists during the 20th century.’

This edition comprises numerous expanded chapters along with several new appendices, some which have never been available in the public domain. Drawing on the evolving nature of conflict and war in Africa, the author has produced another unprecedented work that will retain validity for decades to come. Although written exclusively for African ground forces and their staffs, this edition will find universal appeal, and ought to be studied at all military institutions, war colleges and universities. It ought also to be compulsory reading for academics, politicians, policymakers, scholars of military history and journalists if they wish to gain a meaningful understanding of Africa’s conflicts and wars.

Featuring a 32-page colour section with illustrations and maps, this second edition is a monumental work that should be on every soldier’s bookshelf.
