Guerrilla warfare; History.
Annotation
Beginning with the first insurgencies in the ancient world - when Alexander the Great discovered that fleet nomads were harder to defeat than massive conventional armies - Max Boot, a best-selling author and US military advisor in Iraq and Afghanistan, masterfully guides us from the Jewish rebellion against the Roman Empire up through the horrors of the French-Indochina War and the shadowy, post-9/11 battlefields of today. Relying on a diverse cast of unforgettable characters Boot explodes everything we thought we knew about unconventional combat. The result is both an enthralling read and the most important work available on non-traditional warfare.
