Military Blunders
Military Blunders | Saul David
2 posts | 1 read
Retelling the most spectacular cock-ups in military history, this graphic account has a great deal to say about the psychology of military incompetence and the reasons even the most well-oiled military machines inflict disaster upon themselves. Beginning in AD9 with the massacre of Varus and his legions in the Black Forest all the way up to present day conflict in Afghanistan it analyses why things go wrong on the battlefield and who is to blame.

The first 24 hours of the invasion will be decisive… for the Allies, as well as their opponents, it will be the longest day.

Mehso-so

Covers a wide range of forces and eras. Manages to be both in-depth and concise. Very readable short chapters.
