Excerpt from Topography and Strategy in the War As a student of land forms who is more or less familiar with the broader topographic features of Europe the writer has had a professional as well as a personal interest in the great war. He was particularly anxious to discover how far modern military operations are still affected by the element of terrain; and whether guns which hurl high explosive shells with marvelous accuracy over lofty mountain ridges and across the widest river valleys, aeroplane service which permits better observations than can be secured from the most favorably situated topographic eminences, and modem engineering devices which refuse to be daunted by the deepest stream or steepest cliff, have eliminated the surface features of the land as an important factor in military calculations. Aided by large scale maps showing with precision the topography of the principal battle fronts he has, from the first days of tho war, followed with some care the changes on each front, and has found ample indication that the role played by land forms in plans of campaign and movements of armies is no less important today than in the past. To emphasize this interesting relationship between inanimate Nature and the science of war is one of the objects of this book. Another object, and perhaps the more important, is to place before the reader such a picture of each theater of war as shall enable him to follow with greater ease and livelier interest the movements of our own and our Allies' troops.

O'Sullivan offers a unique geographical look at military strategy and tactics, focusing on recent warfare and weighing the balance of advantage for combatants in different geographic settings. He surveys the global variety of physical habitats from a military viewpoint, provides a geography of war since 1945, and analyzes a selection of ancient and modern battles in developing a set of classical tactical ploys. Also explored are a broad range of modern weapons and tactics, guerrilla operations and urban warfare, and the details of the British Army/IRA conflict.

Excerpt from A Short History of the Great War Dealing Particularly With Its Military and Diplomatic Aspects, and the Part Played in It By, the United StatesThe purpose of this volume is to offer the general reader an outline story of the War. In another book, The Strategy of the Great War, I have endeavoured to interpret the struggle in the broader sense-as a singular and enormously interesting departure from previous mili tary experience - due to the revolutionary conditions introduced by a sudden reversion to rigid positional, or trench warfare. The strategy of the war, determined in part by the military policies of the belligerents, but in still larger part by conditions over which the general staffs had little control, is a study in itself.In this book the purely strategical aspects of the war are discussed only in so far as it is necessary to establish the truer-relation of battles and campaigns to one another and to the ultimate result; The main idea is to give a clear and accurate running account of the war's origin and progress.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Military Geography for Professionals and the Public The dearth of consolidated studies on the discipline of military geography came to John Collins' attention early in his long and distinguished career as a soldier and scholar. Thus he began and kept up an interest in the subject for more than 40 years, amassing voluminous files on the subject. Finally afforded the opportunity to research and write on his avocation at the National Defense University, he spent 2 years as a Visiting Fellow, tapping not only his own wealth of data and experience but a wide variety of well-informed opinions on every facet of military geography. The resultant volume, the culmination of a life-long career, fills a gap in the professional and technical literature. The National Defense University is pleased to have hosted John Collins and to publish his work. No other book, to our knowledge, marries military art with that of the geographer so deftly and completely. The volume seems destined to meet its stated purposes for years to come, namely, to provide a textbook for students, a handbook for military professionals, and an enlightening survey for any appreciative lay reader.
