The Principles of War

This hardcover edition shows signs of wear typical of an ex-library book, including library stamps and a lack of a dust jacket. The spine and corners exhibit some fraying, and there are minor marks on the cover. The binding remains intact, and the pages are free from significant markings, preserving the text's readability.

"The Principles of War" by General Ferdinand Foch, published by The H. K. Fly Company in 1918, is a seminal work on military strategy. This edition, from New York, captures the insights of General Foch, who served as Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Armies during World War I. The book, translated by J. de Morinni, includes nine large maps, providing a detailed visual complement to Foch's strategic analysis. As an ex-library copy from Samford University Library, this book is a valuable piece for collectors interested in military history and strategy. The absence of a dust jacket and the library markings add to its historical authenticity. This edition is a significant acquisition for those studying early 20th-century military thought.
