Bryan Perrett Bücher
Als professioneller Militärhistoriker widmete sich Bryan Perrett in seinem umfangreichen Werk den Feinheiten der Kriegsführung und untersuchte sowohl Strategien als auch die psychologischen Motivationen, die Konflikte antreiben. Ausgehend von persönlichen Erfahrungen bieten seine Schriften tiefe Einblicke in die taktischen Entscheidungen und den menschlichen Geist, die in entscheidenden historischen Momenten zum Tragen kamen. Perretts Prosa zeichnet sich durch gründliche Recherche und fesselnde Erzählungen aus, die komplexe militärische Ereignisse zugänglich und ansprechend gestalten. Seine Analysen erforschen durchweg Themen wie Widerstandsfähigkeit und Entschlossenheit und finden bei Lesern auf beiden Seiten des Atlantiks Anklang.

Whether of high intensity between regular forces, or low intensity confrontation and counter-insurgency, this book gives an account of conflicts in the jungle, from the Japanese invasion of Western territories in 1941-2 to the present day. The author also wrote "Desert Warfare", "A History of Blitzkreig", "Knights of the Black Cross - Hitler's Panzerwaffe and its Leaders", Soviet Armour since 1945", "Tank Tracks to Rangoon", "The Czar's British Squadron" and "Weapons of the Falklands Conflict".
Approximately one-fifth of the earth's surface consists of desert, and throughout history these arid regions have witnessed some of the world's most decisive battles. Here, Bryan Perrett gives an absorbing account of desert conflicts from the first century BC to more contemporary conflicts such as those in Iran and Iraq. As he demonstrates, acclimatization and familiarization with the day-to-day problems of desert life are vital not only to teach troops how to protect themselves and their equipment, but also to bring them to terms with the harsh environment. The desert does not compromise, and battles fought there result in total victory or total defeat, often at horrific cost. Initially released in 1988 by Patrick Stephens Limited, this re-issue marks a determination on the author's and the publisher's part to keep an esteemed publication in print.
