The Echo of Battle: The Army's Way of War

By Brian McAllister Linn

Book Overview

In the face of radically new ways of waging war, Brian Linn surveys the past assumptions - and errors - that underlie the army's many visions of warfare. He explores the army's forgotten heritage of deterrence, it's long experience with counter-guerrilla operations, and it's successive efforts to transform itself.
