Marshal Foch. From the war

This reprint of Marshal Foch's writings, a strategist whose image has suffered in the twentieth century, includes numerous maps and a critical analysis. This volume brings together two of Marshal Foch's works, Des principes de la guerre (1903) and De la conduite de la guerre (1904). Against a backdrop of the rediscovery of high-intensity warfare, this re-reading of not only a player in the First World War, but also a theorist of modern warfare, seems a welcome addition.
