World War Ii (1939:1945): a History of Strategy and Tactics
About This Novel
This book is the concluding work of J. F. C. Fuller, a master of military history, who reflected on the Second World War. Fuller grasped this largest war in human history from a global perspective. From multiple perspectives including Germany, Britain, the Soviet Union, the United States, Japan, France, and China, Fuller made his own in-depth theoretical judgment on the contradictions and conflicts between the strategic goals of the participating parties and the specific means to achieve the goals from a strategic perspective. In Fuller's view, both warring parties took many actions that were contrary to their ultimate strategic intentions. No matter how successful these actions seemed at the time, they were not conducive to the achievement of the overall goal. For example, Fuller believed that strategic bombing not only occupied a large amount of resources that could have been used on landing ships, but also had a disproportionate impact on the enemy's combat capabilities, industrial system, and civilian morale.
