At various times in his long career, his original ideas on tactics and strategy exerted considerable influence in Britain and beyond, and he was one of the first to foresee the implications of atomic and nuclear weapons for the likely nature of future wars.
Yet he was a controversial figure, criticized in some quarters, particularly for his influence on British military policy in the 1930s and his attitude to the defeated German generals after 1945, and in his turn a severe critic of Churchill's statesmanship and Allied grand strategy.
Although Liddell Hart's theories are widely studied in universities and military academies, this sympathetic but critical account is the first book-length study of his thought, indeed the first book to cover the whole of his career.
