Contemporary Review "This book will long remain as one of the crucial studies of a conflict whose end has not yet been seen. One imagines that the lawyers in the forthcoming trial of Milosevic at the Hague will pour over this volume." " for the next decade this volume is likely to be the starting point for both academic researchers and military professionals" - Aerospace Power Journal

Description

First published in 2001. The main focus of this book is on a particular topic: the internal military political history of the war in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina. In other words, it examines the actual policies of the military and political leaderships in those two countries, and the ways in which those policies were formed or deformed by political purposes, strategic aims and military logistical constraints. It is a topic central to any proper understanding of how and why the war developed as it did.
