Description

Leadership in War: Lessons from Those Who Made History by Andrew Roberts presents a fresh and insightful look at nine major figures who shaped the outcome of war. From Napoleon Bonaparte to Margaret Thatcher, these leaders approached conflict with different tactics and strategies, yet shared common goals and qualities that can be applied to leadership in times of struggle. Meticulously researched and compellingly written, this book offers complex portraits of leaders who approached war with varying degrees of success. Roberts reveals the qualities that lead to victory, as well as those that doom even the most promising leaders to failure. With his trademark verve and incisive observation, he provides important lessons on leadership in times of struggle. This book is a thought-provoking exploration of the nature of conflict and the qualities that distinguish successful from unsuccessful leaders.
