Mark Twain once famously said "there was but one solitary thing about the past worth remembering, and that was the fact that it is past and can't be restored." Well, over recent years, The British Library, working with Microsoft has embarked on an ambitious programme to digitise its collection of 19th century books. There are now 65,000 titles available (that's an incredible 25 million pages) of material ranging from works by famous names such as Dickens, Trollope and Hardy as well as many forgotten literary gems , all of which can now be printed on demand and purchased right here on Amazon. Further information on The British Library and its digitisation programme can be found on The British Library website.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

This is a curated and comprehensive collection of the most important works covering matters related to national security, diplomacy, defense, war, strategy, and tactics. The collection spans centuries of thought and experience, and includes the latest analysis of international threats, both conventional and asymmetric. It also includes riveting first person accounts of historic battles and wars. Some of the books in this Series are reproductions of historical works preserved by some of the leading libraries in the world. As with any reproduction of a historical artifact, some of these books contain missing or blurred pages, poor pictures, errant marks, etc. We believe these books are essential to this collection and the study of war, and have therefore brought them back into print, despite these imperfections. We hope you enjoy the unmatched breadth and depth of this collection, from the historical to the just-published works.

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 Excerpt: ...and coming to it again painfully, perhaps reluctantly, and always with distrust of his strength, the while there is none by to cheer and encourage him, no applause, no result even apparent, nor any present hope of a result. What he then can do in the silence and darkness, that he is; and he is but a pale reflex and imitation of that when he stands forth only to show his work. Yet this, the least part and the merest incident of his business, is alone regarded and treated as though it were the whole. They turn with disgust from him while he is running the race; and when he wins the prize they go about exclaiming that it is a gift. CHAPTER XXIX. Or all the feelings a man can experience, I should think the bitterest, the most humiliating, and the nearest of any to desperation, is that which takes him by the throat with soft gripping invisible yet resistless fingers, when he has had what is called a success in that particular department of life to which he has for the moment addressed himself. The wealth he has labored for is at last in his grasp, and all the pleasures and the powers it can command rise up to salute him; the woman he has loved at last owns the spell, and falls into his arms; the heaven-born principle he has discovered and revealed is at last accepted, and the universal crowd call him master; the heathen are converted at last, and own him to be the true prophet: he has fought the fight and conquered. And then, even while the crown is being placed upon his head, then it is that he must fatally look in upon himself and know that he is a miserable impostor. Then in bitterness of soul he first realizes that the wealth is not truly his; that he is not indeed the man whom that woman takes him to be and loves; that the principle he has preached is not h...
