Liddell Hart was a British soldier military historian and military theorist. He wrote a series of military histories that proved influential among strategists. Arguing that frontal assault was bound to fail at great cost in lives as proven in World War I he recommended the "indirect approach" and reliance on fast-moving armored formations. His pre-war publications are known to have influenced German World War II strategy. He also helped promote the "clean Wehrmacht" argument for political purposes when the Cold War necessitated the recruitment of a new West German army. His experiences on the Western Front affected him for the rest of his life. He wrote several booklets on infantry drill and training which came to the attention of General Sir Ivor Maxse commander of the 18th Division. After the war he transferred to the Royal Army Educational Corps where he prepared a new edition of the Infantry Training Manual. He retired from the Army in 1927. He spent the rest of his career as a theorist and writer. In 1924 he became a military correspondent for The Morning Post. He was the military correspondent of The Daily Telegraph from 1925 to 1935 and of The Times from 1935 to 1939. In 1954 Liddell Hart published his most influential work Strategy. Captain B. H. Liddell Hart is the foremost authority on World War I. In The Real War the author has fused exhaustive research and creative brilliance with brevity and precision. Thus we have in one volume the war transformed into literature - an understandable kaleidoscopic masterwork of military history. Faber and Faber hardcover

General Sir Charles Harington 1872-1940 distinguished himself on the western front serving in the Second Army under Plumer his "brilliant staff work complementing Plumer's powers as a commander" ODNB. Liddell Hart inscribed this copy a few months after Harington's promotion to full general. Five years later Harington was one of the names he proposed when asked by Maurice Hankey the secretary to the Cabinet to suggest a replacement for George Milne as Chief of the Imperial General Staff. Between 1918 and 1920 Harington had served as Deputy CIGS. In Remaking one of his regular collections of published articles Liddell Hart stresses the importance of mobility. "Its moral is that nothing less than rebirth can revive mobility in armies and in warfare. And without mobility an army is but a corpse - awaiting burial in a trench" p. x. Octavo.
