Marshall, Charles de Gaulle, Dwight D. Eisenhower and Margaret Thatcher.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEach of these leaders fundamentally shaped the outcome of the war their nation was embroiled in. How were they alike, and in what ways did they differ? Was their war leadership unique, or did these leaders have something in common, traits and techniques that transcend time and place and can be applied to the fundamental nature of conflict?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMeticulously researched and compellingly written, \u003ci\u003eLeadership\u003c\/i\u003e \u003ci\u003ein War \u003c\/i\u003epresents readers with fresh, complex portraits of leaders who approached war with different tactics and different weapons, but with the common goal of success in the face of battle. Both inspiring and cautionary, these portraits offer important lessons on leadership in times of struggle. With his trademark verve and incisive observation, Roberts reveals the qualities that doom even the most promising leaders to failure, and the qualities that lead to victory.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAutorenportrait\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrew Roberts\u003c\/b\u003e (Lord Roberts of Belgravia) is an award-winning historian and author of \u003ci\u003eSalisbury\u003c\/i\u003e (Wolfson Prize for History), \u003ci\u003eMasters and Commanders\u003c\/i\u003e (Emery Reves Award\u003ci\u003e), The Storm of War\u003c\/i\u003e (British Army Book Prize), \u003ci\u003eNapoleon the Great\u003c\/i\u003e (Grand Prix of the Fondation Napoléon and the \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e Biography Prize), \u003ci\u003eGeorge III\u003c\/i\u003e (Elizabeth Longford Prize), and \u003ci\u003eChurchill: Walking with Destiny\u003c\/i\u003e (Council on Foreign Relations Book Prize). \u003cbr\u003eAn Officier de l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of the French Republic, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, he is currently the Bonnie and Tom McCloskey Distinguished Visiting Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University, as well as Visiting Professor at the Department of War Studies at King's College, London.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch4\u003eWeitere Angaben\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eBuch (Paperback), B-format, Englisch, 256 Seiten\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Weltbild.ch: Bücher \u0026 Outlet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65885605724509,"sku":"K082944266","price":12.3,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0911\/8915\/0045\/files\/8294426600001A.jpg?v=1789056537","url":"https:\/\/weltbild.ch\/products\/leadership-in-war-andrew-roberts","provider":"Weltbild.ch Bücher \u0026 Outlet","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
