How Wars Are Won: The 13 Rules of War - From Ancient Greece to the War on Terror

How Wars Are Won: The 13 Rules of War - From Ancient Greece to the War on Terror -- Both timely and timeless, How Wars Are Won is a fascinating look at the history of warfare and the essential principles for achieving victory -- factors as relevant to the antiterrorist challenge as they have been to wars for thousands of years.

Military historian Bevin Alexander devotes a chapter to each rule, offering engaging accounts of pivotal battles -- from Agincourt and Waterloo to Gettysburg and Austerlitz -- that were either won or lost because the rule was or was not heeded. Along the way, Alexander includes profiles of great commanders and their particular style of military genius, including Genghis Khan, Napoleon, Stonewall Jackson, and Erwin Rommel. He also reveals how these 13 rules of battle will survive the development of today's precision-guided weaponry, just as they survived the development of the longbow in the 13th century. How Wars Are Won is essential reading for every informed citizen today.
