Hardback. Zustand: Good. From ancient surprises like Cannae and Yaqrmouk to the earthshaking upsets of Trenton and Little Big Horn to recent shocks of Gozny and suicide bombers, aberrational events are mileposts that mark changes in the paradigm of armed conflict to the detriment of the apparently stronger military through the ages. This book develops an understanding of how the nature of conflict in all it's aspects - from the economic to the military - is changing so rapidly and presenting its proponents with so many unique, and uniquely demanding, events. Through eight case studies from the classic to modern era, it explores strategies for successfully addressing the unexpected circumstances in a changing world.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. What challenges will America face in armed conflicts of the future and how will we prepare for them? National security depends upon the ability of the military to predict the future nature of war. Despite the difficulty in making such predictions, one must remember: nation states and other countries will continue to use armed conflict as a means to further their aims, and these aims will, at times, run contrary to American interests. As a result, the United States will continue to be confronted with armed conflict in the days and years ahead. A military theorist and experienced armor officer, Brian Steed provides insights into the future of armed conflict by focusing on what has occurred in the past-not because the past repeats itself, but because it reveals timeless principles of warfare. Five battles, one each in Korea, Vietnam, the Falklands, the Persian Gulf, and Somalia are analyzed historically, geographically, and strategically. Steed's analysis of these engagements clearly demonstrates that the key to victory on the battlefields of the future is the small unit. In refreshing layman's prose, the author focuses on why the events occurred as they did, and explores the significance of each battle in terms of its political and military ramifications. He concludes with lessons learned that will greatly benefit future American ground combat commanders. Armed Conflict informs the reader about the historical trends of combat operations and the realities of war-today and into the future. It will also serve to guide a new generation of military and civilian leaders as they prepare to face the inevitable conflicts in the new century. …
