"John David Lewis has offered a superb appraisal of how ancient and modern wars start and finish. This chronicle of some 2,500 years of Western history is replete with a philosophical analysis of why nations fight, win—and lose. His insights and conclusions are original and fearless—as well as timely and welcome in the confused war-making of the present age.” “This book’s argument is powerful and provocative, and Lewis is a good storyteller and scholar. Ambitious, stimulating, and thoughtful, this book makes a strong case for the value of the strategic offensive, and engages with the kind of problems that everyone should be thinking about today.”—Barry Strauss, author of The Spartacus War Other Commentary and Reviews about Nothing Less than Victory:Michigan War Studies ReviewUS News and World Report, Washington Book Club The Objective StandardVoices for Reason, The Ayn Rand Center for Individual Rights The Page 99 TestNational Review On-Line (Podcast)Campaign for the American ReaderTimes Higher EducationThe Liberal Institute (Interview) Read an excerpt (the Introduction) Order this book!More about Nothing Less than Victory
