The evolution of modern land warfare : theory and practice / Christopher Bellamy. https://saftimi.spydus.com.sg/cgi-bin/spydus.exe/ENQ/WPAC/BIBENQ?SETLVL=&BRN=8998&CF=BIB In this book, Bellamy demonstrates that military history can be of immense practical help to the modern military analyst and professional. He argues that the study of military history and operations is essential to modern strategic studies and extremely valuable to those engaged in military policy-making and planning for the future. Extensively illustrated with 52 of the author's own detailed campaign maps, battle maps, and diagrams, the book surveys the evolution of warfare in Europe from Napoleon to the present. It also discusses the interaction of technology and warfare. Ranging very widely in his choice of examples, the author includes two long in-depth case studies - one on the Soviet Operational Manoeuvre Group and its predecessors in the Russian Imperial Army; the other on the long history of land warfare, including guerrilla warfare, in Asia. Bellamy also argues that the Americans and Western Europeans should know more about the military experience and accumulated wisdom of Russia, China, and other Asian countries. In particular, he underlines the value of Asian campaigns as sources of universal lessons and principles of war. This original approach of looking at the military history makes the book of special interest and value to professional soldiers. -- SAF Professional Reading Programme, 3rd edition, Dec 2003.
