Excerpt from The Siege of Paris In presenting this volume to a generous public, the author desires to state that he was in Europe in 1870, 1871 and 1872, while the fierce struggle for supremacy between France and Germany was in progress and while other important events were taking place on the Continent: In Paris seven months, during the last days of the Empire of Napoleon III and during the whole of the Great Siege; in Berlin two months, during the demonstrations on the return of the conqueror, William I., Emperor of Germany; in Paris a second time at the close of the Insurrection by the Commune, and in Paris a third time after a tour through Spain, Italy, Austria, South Germany and Switzerland. He has, therefore, made an effort to represent the French Capital in a series of chapters during these eventful years. He has also given brief sketches of the movements of the contending forces in the Departments and of the great battles in which a million Frenchmen resisted unsuccessfully the advance of a million Germans.

NOTE: NO FURTHER DISCOUNT FOR THIS PRINT PRODUCT--OVERSTOCK SALE -- Significantly reduced list price while supplies last Historical Perspectives of the Operational Art, a companion volume to Clayton R. Newell's and Michael D. Krause's On Operational Art, captures the doctrinal debate over the evolving concept of operational art-the critical link between strategy and tactics-in the face of the new complexities of warfare and the demands of irregular operations in the twenty-first century. Consisting of fifteen original essays selected and edited by Michael D. Krause in collaboration with R. Cody Phillips, the well-organized anthology presents the collective view of distinguished military historians and scholars that operational art must be adjusted to accommodate the changing circumstances happening around the world, especially when dealing with broad coalitions and alliances in regional environments and at an international level.
