<br/><br/> "Basil Liddell Hart was a rare bird: military writer, creative artist, journalist, propagandist, controversialist, archivist, adviser, exemplar, and thrower of stones. A war poet in prose - his best work carried a comparable charge - his writing engaged and enraged three generations." "Like all great artists, his best ideas were other people's, made matchlessly his own. Alchemist of War: The Life of Basil Liddell Hart is the first biography of this remarkable man."--Jacket
