Gross has made a major contribution to the literature in this field. The Myth and Reality of German Warfare: Operational Thinking from Moltke the Elder to Heusinger is indispensable reading for any student of the topic., "Anyone working in the military history of the 19th and 20th centuries will need to read this book. And any one, academic or general reader, with more than a casual interest in the study of war will find it informative and accessible." -- Dennis Showalter, author of The Wars of German Unification, "Gross goes beyond the scope of most works on German military history by extending his discussion into the early Cold War period. The Myth and Reality of German Warfare: Operational Thinking from Moltke the Elder to Heusinger is indispensable reading for any student of the topic." -- Parameters, [Gross's] historical survey will take the reader on the examination of the operational thought of five different German armies: the Prussian army of the nineteenth century, the Kaiser's army before and after World War I, the interwar Reichswehr , Adolf Hitler's Wehrmacht , and finally, the Bundeswehr of the Cold War. The result is a fascinating study of a disastrous continuity in military thought., "[Gross's] historical survey will take the reader on the examination of the operational thought of five different German armies: the Prussian army of the nineteenth century, the Kaiser's army before and after World War I, the interwar Reichswehr , Adolf Hitler's Wehrmacht , and finally, the Bundeswehr of the Cold War. The result is a fascinating study of a disastrous continuity in military thought." -- Military Review, Gross's command of the literature, both in English and German, shines through his analysis. Skillfully argued and thoroughly researched, Gross's study demolishes the myth of German operational brilliance and exposes the limitations of maneuver warfare at the strategic level., "The book's US publisher deserves high marks for producing this solid (uncredited) translation of the 2012German original, equipped with many high-quality maps and a substantive foreword by noted military historian Robert Citino. Gerhard Gross has confirmed his reputation as a most perceptive practitioner of operational military history." -- Michigan War Studies Review, This is a must read. With broad brush strokes, Gerhard Gross presents the scholarship of the last half century on 'the German way of war' from the Elder Moltke to Adolf Heusinger in critical yet convincing fashion, complete with stunning colored maps. His new operational history is more than bugles and drums: it is imbedded firmly in German diplomatic, economic, political, and social history. It is a continuous line of evolution. It painstakingly differentiates among tactics, operations and strategy. It is brilliant., "Gross's command of the literature, both in English and German, shines through his analysis.

Synopsis
In this seminal study, Gerhard P. Gross provides a comprehensive examination of the development and failure of German operational thinking over a period of more than a century., Surrounded by potential adversaries, nineteenth-century Prussia and twentieth-century Germany faced the formidable prospect of multifront wars and wars of attrition. To counteract these threats, generations of general staff officers were educated in operational thinking, the main tenets of which were extremely influential on military planning across the globe and were adopted by American and Soviet armies. In the twentieth century, Germany's art of warfare dominated military theory and practice, creating a myth of German operational brilliance that lingers today, despite the nation's crushing defeats in two world wars. In this seminal study, Gerhard P. Gross provides a comprehensive examination of the development and failure of German operational thinking over a period of more than a century. He analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of five different armies, from the mid--nineteenth century through the early days of NATO. He also offers fresh interpretations of towering figures of German military history, including Moltke the Elder, Alfred von Schlieffen, and Erich Ludendorff. Essential reading for military historians and strategists, this innovative work dismantles cherished myths and offers new insights into Germany's failed attempts to become a global power through military means., Surrounded by potential adversaries, nineteenth-century Prussia and twentieth-century Germany faced the formidable prospect of multifront wars and wars of attrition.
