Editorial Reviews
Review
A well-researched look into why insurgencies occur, why they sometimes fail, and why more often seem to succeed.Sea Power

Review
"In noteworthy fashion, Hamilton discusses insurgency as a "method" and as a "type" of warfare. His analysis is clearly superior to anything yet written. I have been studying the Viet Nam conflict for 22 years. Without any reservations, I believe this to be the best book I have yet seen on this subject, and I have read most of them." - from the Foreword by Cecil B. Currey, University of South Florida and award-winning author of Victory at Any Cost
