<div><BR>George Washington’s military strategy has been called bumbling at worst and brilliant at best. So which is it? Was George Washington a strategic genius or just lucky? So asks Dave R. Palmer in his new book, <I>George Washington’s Military Genius</I>. An updated edition of Palmer's earlier work, <I>The Way of the Fox</I>, <I>George Washington’s Military Genius</I> breaks down the American Revolution into four phases and analyzes Washington's strategy during each phrase. "<I>The British did not have to lose; the patriots did not have to triumph</I>," writes Palmer as he proves without a doubt that Washington's continuously-changing military tactics were deliberate, strategic responses to the various phases of the war, not because he lacked a plan of action. Confronting the critics who say Washington's battlefield success and ultimate victories were a function of luck, <I>George Washington's Military Genius</I> proves why the father of our country also deserves the title of America's preeminent strategist.</div>
