More about the book
Liddell Hart's exploration of limited war critiques the traditional military focus on defeating the enemy's main forces, arguing that such an approach leads to unnecessary attrition and prolonged conflict. He emphasizes the need for grand strategists who prioritize achieving a swift return to peace over total destruction. Drawing on historical examples, Hart advocates for redefining war's objectives to minimize costs and interruptions to civilian life. His analysis includes discussions on various military branches and the evolution of modern warfare strategies.
