Andrew Roberts - A háborúvezetés művészete

Can a single person decide the outcome of a global war? What does it take to be a good leader - intelligence, empathy, charisma, or recklessness and insane levels of self-confidence? Renowned British historian Andrew Roberts, the author of Churchill - Hand in Hand with Destiny, explores the secret of leadership through the study of nine decisive modern-day war leaders (from Napoleon to Churchill and Hitler to Margaret Thatcher). The nine large-format historical figures lived in different eras, fought different wars, and played different roles in history, but each of them led millions of people to victory - or to ultimate defeat. What do they have in common, what makes a leader great across ages, cultures and continents?
The author reveals the reasons behind triumphs and failures and the price of victories with his characteristic insight and dynamic style.

"Andrew Roberts captures the essence of great historical figures with extraordinary flair, even with a single quote or anecdote."
