A Dialogue in Hades

This fascinating and compelling work offers a powerful critique of military leadership and strategy. Written in the mid-1800s, the book presents a fictional dialogue between two officers whom were killed in battle. Drawing on his own experiences as a military officer, De Johnstone offers a searing indictment of the mistakes and missteps that led to the defeat and destruction of so many armies. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of warfare or leadership more generally.
