Major-General J.F.C. Fuller, one of the twentieth century's foremost military theorists, chronicles the pivotal engagements that shaped the destiny of Western civilization across 150 years of conflict, analysing not merely the tactics and manoeuvres of each battle, but the profound political, social, and technological forces that made them decisive turning points in history.\n\nFuller writes with the precision of a soldier and the sweep of a historian, arguing that battles are never isolated events but the violent culmination of long strategic, economic, and ideological pressures. Edited by John Terraine, this condensed edition distils Fuller's monumental three-volume masterwork into a single, authoritative narrative that remains essential reading for any student of warfare or Western history. Whether one's interest lies in the Napoleonic conquests, the American Civil War, or the mechanised carnage of the World Wars, this work illuminates the art of war with an intellectual rigour that few have matched — leaving the reader to wonder how differently our world might look had even one of these battles been decided otherwise.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49203382288603,"sku":"2026200013471-SECONDHAND","price":12.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/daa0664e-97a8-4c29-8b0c-39c150d522ae.png?v=1788148120","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013471-secondhand-the-decisive-battles-of-the-western-world-1792-1944","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
