The War for Ukraine analyzes the war through these twin lenses of strategy and adaptation, detailing how each army has succeeded or failed to plan for and adapt to this twenty-first century war.

Still, he had shortcomings as a historian. For one, he did not have the knack of describing military operations in a straightforward and concise manner. Verbose,...

Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 should not have taken the world by surprise. The attack escalated a war that began in 2014 with the Russian annexation of Crimea, but its origins are visible as far back as the aftermath of the Cold War, when newly independent Ukraine moved to the center of tense negotiations between Russia and the West. The United States was a leading player in this drama. I

Robbin Laird traces how unresolved tensions from the 1990s, misread signals, and strategic amnesia set the stage for what one foreword ...
