Hardback. A team of military historians examines 11 20th-century land commanders who were held responsible for disasters or whose highly successful careers ended in sudden dismissal or fall from favour. Each reappraisal aims to place the fateful event in its full operational and political contexts, and to reach a verdict on the reasons for dismissal and whether or not it was justified. 1991, First edition. A very good copy only marked by a small ink mark on the front free endpaper and very light foxing on the first couple of pages.

David Chandler, John Keegan and Cyril Falls are among the most eminent military historians of the Twentieth Century. Professor Brian Bond was a pioneer of War Studies at King's College London. He had a long academic career as a distinguished military historian, serving as President of the British Commission for Military History, and was mentored from an early stage by the prominent military theorist, Sir Basil Liddell Hart. After national service in the Royal Artillery (rising from gunner to second lieutenant), he read history at Worcester College, Oxford University, where his lifelong focus on military history was inspired by taking the Oxford Special Subject paper on Napoleonic military history taught by Norman Gibbs, Chichele Professor of the History of War. During Brian's final year at Oxford, Liddell Hart moved to Medmenham, where Brian's father worked as gardener for him. He learned of the younger Bond and showed great interest in him, encouraging Brian in his academic studies, especially the interest in military history. Liddell Hart allowed the keen Oxford undergraduate access to his extensive library and private papers, and to meet the many personalities who visited him at his home as Brian would later introduce some of his own students to Liddell Hart. Following an introduction from Liddell Hart, Brian joined an early cohort of Michael Howard's proto-War Studies students, taking the new War Studies MA, which was at that time still based in the Department of History, graduating in 1962. His colleagues included many who would go on to become eminent military historians, such as John Gooch and Peter Simkins. In this period, Brian held a one-year tutorship at the University of Exeter (1961) and was appointed to a lectureship at the University of Liverpool, where he stayed four years. In 1966, he returned to King's as a Lecturer in War Studies, the third academic appointed to Michael Howard's new Department. Brian remained at King's for the remainder of his university career, appointed as Professor of Military History in 1986 and retiring in 2001. His writing was extensive. An historian of the British army, Brian published books and articles on the Victorian army, Liddell Hart's military thought, and the two world wars. Brian authored two significant survey works, War and Society in Europe, 18701970 (1984) in some ways, the 'war and society' book embodied the approach Michael Howard had promoted in building War Studies at King's and The Pursuit of Victory from Napoleon to Saddam Hussein (1996). Generations of students at King's and elsewhere will be familiar with these works, which remain essential reading in many history modules. His early research was on Secretary of State for War Edward Cardwell's late Victorian army reforms, leading to two studies of Victorian military affairs, the edited volume Victorian Military Campaigns (1967) and The Victorian Army and the Staff College (1975). He published Unquiet Western Front and a second book that focused on the contested memory of the First World War in Britain, Survivors of a Kind: Memoirs of the Western Front (2008). The two strands of his thought came together in his final academic work as the Great War's centenary approached, Britain's Two World Wars Against Germany (2014), a strongly revisionist interpretation. Brian had sought to stir debate a.…
