On Guerrilla Warfare by Mao Zedong
A concise manual presenting a theory and practical guide for conducting guerrilla war, arguing that a small, politically organized revolutionary force can survive and grow by mobilizing the peasantry, creating secure base areas, using mobility, surprise and flexible tactics, and combining protracted guerrilla operations with conventional actions as conditions permit. It stresses the centrality of political work, intelligence, local logistics drawn from the population, decentralized initiative and discipline, and outlines a three-stage progression from strategic defense to strategic stalemate and finally to strategic offense, with detailed advice on organization, tactics, supply, and propaganda.
