History is replete with examples of notable military campaigns and exceptional military leaders and theorists. Military professionals and students of the art and science of war cannot afford to ignore these sources of knowledge or limit their studies to the history of the U.S. armed forces. This series features original works, translations, and reprints of classics outside the American canon that promote a deeper understanding of international military theory and practice.

who built the foundation upon which victory rests
Imagine that the modern battlefield is like a great stage stretching across the landscape in some remote part of the world. On this stage we see the actors: generals devising strategy and plans; brigades and divisions maneuvering to engage the enemy; fleets of gray-hulled ships launching volleys of shells. In the sky, aircraft compete to gain an advantage over the adversary or attack strategic and tactical targets on the ground. Histories, movies, and documentaries help re-create these events, but they often tell only part of the story. How did the combatants arrive on the battlefield, far from home? How did they get the fuel, munitions, food, repair parts, clothing, water, and equipment needed to engage in great-power conflict? Who built the airfields and cleared the ports, and how did they do it? What were the support structures and doctrine that ensured the right things were in the right place at the right time? How did the combatants synchronize support requirements with available resources? In short, we see the actors in front of us, but what about the story of everything that happened to make the production possible? Like a play, what were the decisions, actions, challenges, and events that took place behind the curtain, setting the foundation for success?
