Book Overview
personal, brilliant, and literary-biographical set of essays by one of the world's foremost war strategists, who died in France this month (August 2025). The republication, Memory of My Memory, confronts the author's knowledge of the Armenian Genocide and its searing aftermath-from the mass annihilation of ancestors to the doomed resistance of Hadjin (1920), where one of his relatives perished, fighting. The memoir invokes memory and events and extend to the political violence of the 1970s, when Armenian armed groups assassinated Turkish diplomats in a concerted campaign to force modern Turkey to acknowledge the crimes of its forebears.

He also wrote over 40 books and taught at the cole Sup rieure de Guerre (Paris), the cole Nationale d'Administration (Paris), Harvard University, and the University of California, Berkeley.
