For many years I've looked for a book in which I could find both factual information and deep analysis of the most important events where the U.S. armed forces have been involved. I also wanted to read something where history and military studies would be combined in a good balance. "Elements of military strategy" fills my needs. The author explains variations in strategy since the Indian Wars during the colonial period until the Gulf War. He uses common language, so that many people may have access to all information provided. However, concentration is required if one really wants to get all what this book offers, because professor Jones goes back and foth in time, establishing connections in strategy during the different historical periods he covers. Great book!
