Supreme Command: Soldiers, Statesmen and Leadership in Wartime

This timely examination of civilian-military relations in wartime democracies challenges the conventional view that politicians should step aside during military operations. Eliot A. Cohen presents case studies of statesmen who successfully intervened to achieve their objectives.

Through a detailed analysis of leadership traits and strategies, Cohen argues that active involvement from politicians can be crucial to success in war. This thought-provoking book is essential reading for anyone interested in leadership and the complexities of military strategy.
