Recenzje

Kudos to James Lacey who has assembled preeminent military historians to explain the strategic rivalries of great powers from the Greeks to the Cold War. What emerges is a superb reminder that human nature over the ages does not change and nations remain governed as much by their collective emotions as by their rational calculations. The result is a professional and refreshing effort to remind us that behind the fog of war there are always strategies, whether foolish or inspired.
