Reviews
'Its substance ... is anything but shallow, and the majority of the contributors have written readable and persuasive essays which break new ground in their chosen subject areas.'Brian Holden Reid, King's College, London, EHR April 1993'the editors have assembled a sequence of essays which coherently reflects the interests of the scholar to whom they are dedicated ... It is good to know that military historians still pursue their traditional goal of seeking out the skeletons in the cupboard.'London Review of Books'This book has much to offer, because the diversity of the essays ensures that any specialist will be a general reader of most of them. The book's considerable attraction lies in its breadth of coverage, which is intentionally eclectic. The title of this volume is ambitious but it lives up to its promise ... The whole is considerably more than the sum of its parts, and represents a fitting tribute to Sir Michael Howard, who has contributed so much to bothof the disciplines featured in this book.' Tim Benbow, Arts, Reviews, Ideas'a neatly done job ... which is not unworthy of Michael Howard - a high enough compliment for any work on these subjects'Times Literary Supplement'There is much here for the peace-lover, internationalist, and international historian to ponder.'Sally Marks, The International History Review, XV,2: May 1993'He has been the founding father of the serious study of both approaches to the study of war in the United Kingdom, and his influence has, through the quality of his prose and through the good sense and balance of his judgements, extended far beyond the universities.'Hew Strachan, University of Glasgow, The Historical Association 1997, 'Its substance ... is anything but shallow, and the majority of the contributors have written readable and persuasive essays which break new ground in their chosen subject areas.'Brian Holden Reid, King's College, London, EHR April 1993
