Wraps. Kistler, James E. (Cover Art) (illustrateur). Presumed first edition/first printing. vi, 38 p. Endnotes. From an on-line posting: "For nearly two centuries, the principles of war have guided practitioners of the military art. During the last 55 years the principles of war have been a key element of U.S. Army doctrine, and recently they have been incorporated into other Service and Joint doctrines. The turn of the 21st century and the dawn of what some herald as the "Information Age, " however, may call into question whether principles originally derived in the 19th century and based on the experience of "Industrial Age" armed forces still hold. Moreover, despite their long existence, the applicability of the principles of war at the strategic level of warfare has not been the subject of detailed analysis or assessment. William T. Johnsen held the Elihu Root Chair of Military Studies at the U.S. Army War College from 1994-97. A former Infantry officer, Dr. Johnsen served in a variety of troop leading, command, and staff assignments. He holds a B.S. degree from the U.S. iv Military Academy, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in History from Duke University. Dr. Johnsen also is a graduate of the Armed Forces Staff College and the U.S. Army War College. Very good. No dust jacket. Cover has slight wear and soiling.
