Titres dans Stratégie

A arte da guerra apresenta uma das principais preocupações e um dos principais projetos de Maquiavel: a criação de um exército comunal, que deveria ser constituído pelos habitantes de Florença. Esse projeto e este livro que o apresenta, assim como as outras obras de Maquiavel, são fruto de sua experiência diplomática, que lhe possibilitou um contato direto com os principais protagonistas da política de seu tempo, e das leituras dos clássicos, sobretudo os historiadores e autores latinos de tratados sobre a guerra e a arte militar.

World War II was a truly global conflict, but no theatre of the war tested the limits of human endurance, strategy, and brutality like the Pacific. In Island by Island: The Pacific War in Brutal Detail, author Cyril Marlen delivers a visceral, unflinching account of the long, bitter struggle between Allied forces and the Empire of Japan. This is not a broad-strokes overview—it’s a deep dive into the raw, punishing reality of the Pacific War, told through vivid detail, gripping analysis, and a relentless focus on the battles that defined the ocean-spanning campaign.

In the evolving landscape of modern warfare, where the enemy may not wear a uniform and the battlefield may be a city street, surveillance has become not just important, but indispensable. At the heart of Britain’s response to this new reality stands one of its most elusive and misunderstood special forces units: the Special Reconnaissance Regiment (SRR). In The SRR: Britain’s Covert Surveillance Regiment, former military intelligence officer and historian Mick Trenlow-Symes pulls back the curtain—if only slightly—on this shadowy arm of UK Special Forces.

In Ancient Battles That Changed the Course of History, military historian Korey Blathewick delivers a sweeping, gripping account of ten legendary clashes that shaped the destiny of civilizations.

From the plains of Kansas to the war rooms of London and the beaches of Normandy, The Man Who Led the Liberation of Europe traces Dwight D. Eisenhower’s extraordinary journey. He wasn’t a battlefield general in the traditional sense—but he wielded one of the most powerful weapons of the war: strategy. Balancing complex alliances, clashing egos, and an enemy entrenched across the continent, Eisenhower’s role as commander required more than just military brilliance—it demanded diplomacy, emotional intelligence, and nerves of steel.

Churchill’s Secret Warriors tells the electrifying story of the Special Operations Executive (SOE)—the shadowy organisation Britain created in World War II to fight the Nazis from behind enemy lines. This book pulls back the curtain on one of history’s most daring and unconventional wartime initiatives. Born in desperation after the fall of France and the near-collapse of Europe, the SOE was Churchill’s audacious answer to the Nazi stranglehold across the continent.

In this treatise, Sun Tzu lays out his basic philosophy of how to wage military campaigns, including a description of the correct temperament of a general, flanking and attack strategies, the use of spies, the employment of deception and counter-intelligence and dozens of other time-honored pieces of military advice.

In The OSS: America’s First Spy Agency, acclaimed historian Cyril Marlen peels back the curtain on the secret missions, eccentric characters, and dangerous innovations that defined the OSS’s short but seismic existence.

Blitzkrieg explores one of the most revolutionary military strategies of the twentieth century—a method of war that stunned nations, shattered armies, and reshaped the rules of conflict. This deeply engaging and accessible book uncovers how speed, coordination, and surprise became the most lethal combination in modern warfare. In the opening phases of World War II, German forces swept across Europe with astonishing speed. Nations that had once braced for long, drawn-out battles collapsed in mere weeks. At the centre of this storm was a tactical approach known as Blitzkrieg, or “lightning war.”

“Three lessons are interwoven throughout the historical case studies of information operations during large-scale combatis the information regardless of the capabilities employed to effect it; 2. successful information operations are operations integrated, synchronized, resourced and commander-led from inception to execution; and 3. information operations are, at their core, adversary/enemy-focused operations conducted to gain a relative advantage for friendly decision-makers…

Why, after over 100 Sigma war games showed us that we could not win, did we still go into Vietnam? Why, if one military doctrine irrefutably indicates that it can succeed time after time, is it not adopted in every military action? Why do warriors hate war? Because their bosses don't understand it. What's the mission? How do we win? What is winning? Bush said that winning was when the major combat operations were ceasing. Maybe so, but knowing how to win a war while striving not to be in one makes a real warrior.

Combining the personal recollections of soldiers with historical narrative and analysis of the actual invasion as it unfolded, this is a detailed description of the action at Omaha Beach during the Normandy invasion of World War II.

Added to the invasion plan largely at the insistence of British General Bernard Montgomery, the attack at Utah Beach aimed to secure the Cotentin Peninsula and ultimately seize the port of Cherbourg. Although the assault on Utah Beach became one of the most successful American military operations of World War II, it was fraught with risk from the beginning: Not only was Utah the most isolated of the five D-Day beaches, but the airborne operation was of unprecedented size and scope.
