Book Description
Excerpt from Elements of the Art of War: Prepared for the Use of the Cadets of the United States Military Academy In preparing this work for the use of the Cadets, ft was not intended to write an exhaustive treatise upon the Art of War or any of its branches. The design was only to state concisely the first elements of the Art of War and show their relations to each other. An attempt has been made to arrange the matter in such order as to lead one first approaching the subject to so study campaigns and battles as to try to discover the causes which have secured victory to one and entailed defeat upon another; and to determine whether they arise from tactics logistics or strategy. If it accomplishes this object it will have completely fulfilled its mission. In the body of the work credit has been given to authors whose works have been somewhat closely followed in the particular subject under discussion. In addition to those so mentioned, most of the works whose names are given on the adjoining page have been freely consulted, and the ideas contained in them have been adopted, modified, combined with others, or rejected as seemed best. My thanks are due to Lieutenants Goethals, Hodges, and Hale, of the Corps of Engineers, by whom I have been ably assisted in the revision of this work. While using it as a text-book in the instruction of Cadets they have critically examined it, and in accordance with their suggestions I have corrected the typographical and other errors discovered, and have changed the wording of a number of sentences whose meaning seemed obscure. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

" . . . a strong and stimulating book. It has no rival in either scope or quality. For libraries, history buffs, and armchair warriors, it is a must. For political science students, career diplomats, and officers in the armed services, its reading should be required." —History "A particularly timely account." —Kansas City Times "It reads easily but is not a popularized history . . . nor does the book become a history of battles. . . . Weigley's analyses and interpretations are searching, competent, and useful." —Perspective
