Description
George Washington's military strategy has been subject to debate. Dave R. Palmer sets out to answer this question in his book George Washington's Military Genius. The American Revolution is broken down into four phases, and Palmer analyzes Washington's strategy during each phase. He argues that the father of the country was a deliberate and strategic thinker, responding to changing circumstances on the battlefield rather than relying on luck. Palmer challenges critics who claim Washington's successes were due to chance, instead showing how his tactics were carefully considered responses to the war's various phases.
