Reprint of the 1900 edition, Paris: Editions de la Revue Blanche, with new introduction in English. "The existing military structure was condemned both on grounds of its inordinate expense and its incipient danger to republican institutions. In polemical terms, it was too "Prussian." Moch also assumed that France would never be the aggressor in a war of the future. Militarily, French expansionism in Europe would have been foolhardy. In addition, on the high seas, Franc should never undertake a major naval war. That would be sheer folly for a number of reasons, not the least of which was the far greater power of Britain and the fact that the British were excellent customers of French products . Thus, an alternative form of military organization appropriate to France was based on essentially defensive premises. This form was the militia." - new Introduction by Sandi E Cooper. ; The Garland Library of War and Peace; Ex-Library; 517 pages.
