The modern war of mobility, from its beginnings in the last year of WWI, to the campaigns of WWII and postwar campaigns in the Middle East. The bulk of the book examines WWII actions, in the West, on the Russian front, and in Burma. It also looks at the development of tactics, Armoured Fighting Vehicles, and aircraft from 1918 to the present. It describes the workings of the Blitzkrieg technique in detail, its victories, and the built-in factors which have denied it universal success. Foreword by General Sir John Hackett.
