Title: More superficial than I had anticipated
Review: Disappointing. I thought a writer of Elting's stature (Napoleon's Marshals, etc.) would have more of substance to say. Instead he gives what amounts to a general overview with a lot of name dropping. I did find his take on Basel Liddell-Hart to be refreshing though (he's a pretentious phony). His last chapter on the cold war and the Soviet Union is, of course, totally off base. All in all, don't bother unless you've read everything else in the field.
