""Echevarria's provocative study on the role of theory in warfare
is as valuable and applicable today as it was when it was written.
I recommend it highly."--Military Review
"A tour de force. Compels the reader to rethink long-cherished
notions about the 'German way of war."'Holger Herwig, author of
The Outbreak of World War I"Demolishes the conventional view that
Germany's and Europe's soldiers of the period willfully and
culpably ignored material and intellectual developments in the
craft of war." --Dennis Showalter, author of Tannenberg: Clash of
Empires"A major addition to the history of military theory and
doctrine in the twentieth century and a must read for those
interested in German history, World War I, and military
thought."--James Corum, author of The Roots of Blitzkrieg and The
Luftwaffe"An indispensable work, not only for experts on the
Prussian-German army, but also for scholars working in the general
field of military affairs."--Arden Bucholz, author of Moltke and
the German Wars, 1864-1871
