Written by professional military historian Saul David this book vividly describes some of the worst blunders and analyses the factors to show why they happened. Among the many subjects covered are Commanders who from incompetence, inexperience or plain incapacity brought disaster on their men. Fiascos caused by meddling politicians. Catastrophes brought about by a fatal underestimation of the enemy, whether MacArthur at the Yalu River or the French at Dien Bien Phu.
