In this deeply researched and vivid account, Cyril Marlen uncovers the astonishing role pigeons played in the most destructive conflict of the twentieth century. Radios could be jammed, batteries failed in freezing cold, and transmissions risked interception. But pigeons, guided only by instinct and loyalty to their home lofts, rose into the air and carried messages across battlefields, seas, and occupied territories. Their journeys were often short, sometimes perilously long, but always fraught with danger from bullets, hawks, storms, and exhaustion.

Perhaps the most important book on military strategy ever written, Carl von Clausewitz's On War has influenced generations of generals and politicians, has been blamed for the unprecedented death tolls, and is required reading at military academies to this day.

He wasn’t a battlefield general in the traditional sense—but he wielded one of the most powerful weapons of the war: strategy.

Война и торговля сопровождали наших предков с древнейших времен. Между этими видами человеческой деятельности не было существенной разницы. Воин занимался торговлей, а купец часто бывал воином. На войне нет непроверенных и непродуманных методов. Каждый шаг, каждое действие четко расписано, так как слишком высоки ставки. Древние ученые писали целые трактаты на тему войны. Они учили, как с наименьшими потерями добиться победы на поле сражения. Война и бизнес очень похожи. В обеих этих областях есть победители и побежденные, есть победы и поражения, есть атаки и переговоры, натиск и убеждения.

A arte da guerra apresenta uma das principais preocupações e um dos principais projetos de Maquiavel: a criação de um exército comunal, que deveria ser constituído pelos habitantes de Florença. Esse projeto e este livro que o apresenta, assim como as outras obras de Maquiavel, são fruto de sua experiência diplomática, que lhe possibilitou um contato direto com os principais protagonistas da política de seu tempo, e das leituras dos clássicos, sobretudo os historiadores e autores latinos de tratados sobre a guerra e a arte militar.

In The SRR: Britain’s Covert Surveillance Regiment, former military intelligence officer and historian Mick Trenlow-Symes pulls back the curtain—if only slightly—on this shadowy arm of UK Special Forces.

The ability of the US Navy to fight and win a protracted war in the Pacific was not solely the result of technology, tactics, or leadership.

The naval war against Japan did not achieve sustained success until enough aircraft technicians were available to support the high tempo of aviation operations that fast carrier task force doctrine demanded.

Pundits have long predicted the end of conventional warfare but for the foreseeable future, it is here to stay. Counterinsurgency, guerrilla warfare, terrorism, peace enforcement, policing. All these forms, like conventional warfare, are as old as mankind. Modern militaries claim to be professional bodies, responsible for the education, control, and discipline of their members. But at least one aspect of this claim is poorly executed: tactics are not taught to junior leaders, which is why this guide is essential for all junior leaders, officers, and NCOs alike.
