LIDDELL HART, Basil Henry (contrib).
Promise of Greatness. The War of 1914-18.
London: Cassell 1968. First edition first impression presentation copy from the author with a typed letter signed and inscribed warmly on the front free endpaper "To Alice Saxby in deep appreciation and affection - with its personal tribute to you on page 111. From Basil Liddell Hart. States House Medmenham Marlow Bucks". In the letter signed "Basil" and dated 20 August 1969 Liddell Hart asks Saxby to confirm safe receipt of this copy and notes that "Monty was here for lunch today - looking better than he did last year and full of vigour and we were talking warmly about you"; this is presumably a reference to Field Marshal Montgomery whom Saxby nursed while he was undergoing minor surgery at the King Edward VII's Hospital for Officers in January 1955. Alice Saxby 1904-1987 was matron at the hospital from 1948 to 1969 and a leading figure who "lived for the hospital" Hough p. 126. Liddell Hart describes his visits to the hospital in the present work in his essay "Forced to Think": "I did not myself return there as a patient until forty years later for a major operation when I was happy to find that founder Sister Agnes's successor as matron Miss Alice Saxby was quite as dynamic while more knowledgeable" ibid. p. 111. Saxby's death was widely reported in the newspapers and "all the senior members of the royal family were represented at the service" Dorothy Shipsey cited in Hough p. 171. This collection of 42 original essays was published to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the armistice. It includes pieces by Robert Graves Edmund Blunden Gerald Brenan L. P. Hartley R. C. Sherriff Charles Carrington R. H. Mottram Cyril Falls Sir Compton Mackenzie Alec Waugh Vera Brittain Esmé Wingfield-Stratford and Correlli Barnett. Octavo. Map of the Western Front facing Robert Graves's contribution on p. 2. Original black cloth spine lettered in gilt. With dust jacket. Cloth lightly rubbed and marked spots to edges contents clean; jacket spine lettering faintly toned purple colour bright rubbing and occasional nicks unclipped: a very good copy in like jacket.

Liddell Hart, B H
Reputations: Ten Years After
Boston MA: Little Brown and Company 1928. First U.S. Edition. Hardcover. fair. viii 4 316 pages. Illustrations. Maps four fold-out. Front board weak. Some wear to edges of spine. Small tear at rear board pages have darkened somewhat. Sir Basil Henry Liddell Hart 31 October 1895 - 29 January 1970 known throughout f his career as Captain B. H. Liddell Hart was a soldier historian and military theorist. Liddell Hart was placed on half-pay from 1924. He later retired from the Army in 1927. Two mild heart attacks in 1921 and 1922 probably the long-term effects of his gassing precluded his further advancement. He spent his career as a theorist and writer. In 1924 he became a military correspondent for the Morning Post. He worked as the Military Correspondent of the Daily Telegraph from 1925 to 1935 and of The Times from 1935 to 1939. Liddell Hart wrote a series of histories through which he advanced his ideas that the frontal assault was a strategy that was bound to fail. He argued that the tremendous losses Britain suffered in the Great War were due to her commanding officers not appreciating this fact of history. . In his early writings on mechanized warfare Liddell Hart had proposed that infantry be carried along with the fast-moving armored formations. He described them as "tank marines" like the soldiers the Royal Navy carried with their ships. He proposed they be carried along in their own tracked vehicles and dismount to help take better-defended positions that otherwise would hold up the armored units. Liddell Hart foresaw the need for a combined arms force with mobile infantry and artillery which was similar but not identical to the make-up of the panzer divisions that Guderian developed in Germany. This book is an examination of ten leading figures of WW I "the war to end all wars" ten years after the armistice. Liddell Hart revisits generals on both sides including Joffre Foch Petain Ludendorff and Pershing. "If you believe as we do that armed conflict revealing as it does human nature with merciless clarity affords us insight and possible guidance into situations less deadly but nevertheless of great importance then this book is for you."

Dust jacket in protective mylar cover. Clean unmarked pages. 430 p. maps 22 cm. <br> "Strategy is a seminal work of military history and theory a perfect companion to Sun-tzu's The Art of War and Carl von Clauswitz's On War. Liddell Hart stressed movement flexibility and surprise. He saw that in most military campaigns dislocation of the enemy's psychological and physical balance is prelude to victory. This dislocation results from a strategic indirect approach. Reflect for a moment on the results of direct confrontation trench war in WW I versus indirect dislocation Blitzkreig in WW II. Liddell Hart is also tonic for business and political planning: just change the vocabulary and his concepts fit. Praeger hardcover

No DJ. Some endpaper and page discoloration. Previous owner's name on fep No DJ present. Sir Basil Henry Liddell Hart 31 October 1895 - 29 January 1970 commonly known as Captain B. H. Liddell Hart was a British soldier military historian and military theorist. He wrote a series of military histories that proved influential among strategists. Arguing that frontal assault was bound to fail at great cost in lives as proven in World War I he recommended the "indirect approach" and reliance on fast-moving armored formations. His pre-war publications are known to have influenced German World War II strategy. He also helped promote the "clean Wehrmacht" argument for political purposes when the Cold War necessitated the recruitment of a new West German army. His experiences on the Western Front affected him for the rest of his life. He wrote several booklets on infantry drill and training which came to the attention of General Sir Ivor Maxse commander of the 18th Division. After the war he transferred to the Royal Army Educational Corps where he prepared a new edition of the Infantry Training Manual. He retired from the Army in 1927. He spent the rest of his career as a theorist and writer. In 1924 he became a military correspondent for The Morning Post. He was the military correspondent of The Daily Telegraph from 1925 to 1935 and of The Times from 1935 to 1939. In 1954 Liddell Hart published his most influential work Strategy. Captain B. H. Liddell Hart is the foremost authority on World War I. In The Real War the author has fused exhaustive research and creative brilliance with brevity and precision. Thus we have in one volume the war transformed into literature - an understandable kaleidoscopic masterwork of military history. Faber and Faber hardcover
