The Lessons of History af Michael Howard
An excellent collection oi essays/lectures from a master historian. Worth the time of anyone interested in European or military history.
Om krigets natur och historiens drivkrafter. Författaren konstaterar att krig har funnits lika länge som mänskligheten, medan fred är en relativt ny tanke. Läsaren får följa med genom Europas historia från forntid fram till 11 september 2001 med stopp vid avgörande vändpunkter och nya idéer som styrt utvecklingen.
I'm not normally a fan of reading introductions before reading the primary, since so often introductions are arguing hard for the author's (sometimes quirky) interpretation, but this one is so good. Clausewitz is cited far more than read, and the more common editions are a 1907 or so translation. So, the book seems more archaic in language than it was. Howard was part of the best translation/edition, and this little book does a great job of summarizing Clausewitz's argument, and even explaining how it was misrepresented.
