Blitzkrieg and the Russian Art of War

Rezensionen / Stimmen

'Long awaited, this meticulously researched analysis of the Soviet and Russian way in war is rooted in a deep understanding of Russian mentality and strategic culture. Every officer in every NATO member state should read it!'
Beatrice Heuser, author of Flawed Strategy: Why Smart Leaders Make Bad Decisions

'A compelling, sophisticated guide to Russian ways of war, from Peter the Great to Putin and beyond.'
Andrew Lambert, author of The British Way of War

'Forget cliches about "hybrid wars" and "little green men". Russia is waging war up front in an age of blood and iron. Andrew Monaghan is an incisive guide to Moscow's view of war. He takes his deep knowledge and intellectual firepower to decades of half-truths and buzzwords. Amateurs, take cover.'
Patrick Porter, author of How to Survive a Hostile World: Power, Politics and the Case for Realism

'With this extraordinary book, Andrew Monaghan once again proves that he is one of this generation's most creative and insightful scholars of the Russian military. This is a crucial and necessary corrective to much mythmaking about the Soviet and Russian military by a scholar at the top of his game.'
Michael B. Petersen, US Naval War College

'For scholars and practitioners, this book is an essential optics for understanding the past, present and future of the Russian way in war, across all domains of warfare, on all levels of command. A brilliant accomplishment at a time when it is most needed.'
Dima Adamsky, author of The Russian Way of Deterrence -- .
