Description:
London: Barrie and Rockliff / The Cresset Press, 1968. xii, 180pp, 12 text-figures, references, indexes of names and games. Page edges lightly foxed, soiled. Or cl boards in dust-jacket. The book describes, for the general reader, 'the evolution of the war game as a serious, and often unreliable, military planning device. It led to disaster in the hands of the German General Staff in 1914, and in those of the Japanese navy in 1941. Later in the Second World War, more scientific methods of operation research were perfected; but these proved impotent to answer questions presented by the H-bomb'.. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo.
