Peripheral campaigns and the principles of war: the British experience, 1914-1918/ Charles Tustin Kamps - Manhattan, Kansas: MA/AH Publishing-Sunflower University Press, ©1982 - 147 pages; 28 cm.

Principles of war are rules and guidelines that represent truths in the practice of war and military operations. The conclusion of this treatise finds that throughout the world war I, civilian and military strategists blatantly violated these basic principles, which had been enunciated by military writers in the early 19th century and practised by successful commanders for hundreds of years. The campaigns under examination are vindicated or condemned according to their effect or potential effect on the total war effort.
