Liddell Hart, no warrior, dwelt all his life on war. He obtained its waste, deplored its unreasonableness, but amended the classical dictum as one of his own-if you wish for peace understand war. Although his name is synonuymous w military thought and military controversy, throughout his life he appeared i succession of different guises. He was variously revered and reviled. He adv Lloyd George-among others-and antagonised Winston Churchill.
