Seller: Palinurus Antiquarian Books

Title: Der Feldzug von 1813 bis zum Waffenstillstand
Author: [Clausewitz, K von] - MILITARY STRATEGY
Seller: Palinurus Antiquarian Books (United States)
Condition: Very good; old ink stamp on the title; toned throughout.
Description: np: unk., nd. First Edition.. Original publisher's blue wrappers.. Very good; old ink stamp on the title; toned throughout.. 8vo, [4], 81, [1] pp. Clausewitz's only lifetime publication. It is based on his experience in the Goehrde campaign, which he led, during the Russian war of 1812. An important work by the pre-eminent military thinker of the late 18th and 19th century. He along with Jomini defined the debates of military science for the remainder of the century. Clausewitz's own experience of war was limited to the Napoleonic campaigns described in his 'smaller writings' of this period (inaccessible until printed in 1937). What he knew of war he learned here. Clausewitz served under Scharnhorst and was present during the humiliation of Prussia in 1806. He was responsible for rebuilding the army, serving during this critical transition period when the 18th cent. idea of war, indecisive and dominated by absolutist state and cabinet politics, was overthrown by the mass armies introduced by the French Revolution. Clausewitz's theories, right and wrong, originate here. An important book.
