Friedman, B. A. On Tactics (1682476243)
Originally setting out to write the very book that he would have wanted to own as a young infantryman, the author penned
On Tactics as a remedy for navigating the chaotic and inchoate realm of tactical theory. Challenging centuries-old conventional wisdom regarding the principles of war, tactics, and the roles of strategy, doctrine, experiential learning, and military history, Friedman's work offers a striking synthesis of thinking on tactics as well as strategy.
