About this ebook
Strategic Retreats challenges the conventional view of retreats as defeats, arguing instead that they are vital military maneuvers.
The book explores how strategic withdrawals have been used throughout history to conserve forces, gain tactical advantages, and ultimately achieve strategic objectives.
Military leaders often face the difficult decision to retreat when facing overwhelming odds; this book examines how these decisions, when meticulously planned, can disrupt enemy offensives and set the stage for future counterattacks.
