Clausewitz by Michael Howard
A concise intellectual biography and critical study that situates Clausewitz’s life and writings in the Napoleonic era, explains his central concepts—war as the continuation of politics by other means, the trinity, friction, fog of war, and the idea of a center of gravity—and emphasizes the tensions and ambiguities in his thought, showing how his experience and historical context shaped a nuanced theory that remains influential for understanding strategy and the relationship between policy and violence.
