Краткое описание: From editor:”One truism about military history is that the victors are usually the ones who write the history, with all the predictable biases, distortions, self-promotion, and self-serving hyperbole that one might expect. Accounts by the losing side might be no more trustworthy, but accounts of a defeat by the defeated are less likely to be written at all or to be widely disseminated, owing to such factors as destruction of records and sources, reluctance to declassify records, language barriers, cultural differences, plain embarrassment, or ongoing hostilities”.
