War & StrategyBook note
The Strategy Bridge
Description. A short description of a book from my bookshelf, not a review.
Gray develops his general theory of strategy, arguing that strategy is the bridge between political purpose and military power. He sets out a series of propositions about the nature of strategy and explains why the strategist's job is so difficult.
The book is demanding and dense, but it is one of the most rigorous attempts to explain strategy as a practical activity. It builds on the ideas of his earlier Modern Strategy.
