'John David Lewis offers a superb appraisal of how ancient and modern wars start and finish. This chronicle of some 2,500 years of Western history is replete with a philosophical analysis of why nations fight, win#and lose. His insights and conclusions are original and fearless#as well as timely and welcome in the confused war-making of the present age.'#Victor Davis Hanson, author of Carnage and Culture"This book's argument is powerful and provocative, and Lewis is a good storyteller and scholar. Ambitious, stimulating, and thoughtful, this book makes a strong case for the value of the strategic offensive, and engages with the kind of problems that everyone should be thinking about today.'#Barry Strauss, author of The Spartacus War.
