This provocative work by François Sully, a French journalist and military theorist, offers a comprehensive analysis of guerrilla warfare tactics and their growing influence in the late 20th century. Published in the midst of the Vietnam War and various anti-colonial struggles, “Age of the Guerilla” examines the historical roots of guerrilla warfare, from the American Revolution to the Chinese Civil War, and explores how these unconventional tactics were being adopted by revolutionary movements worldwide. Sully’s insights into the psychological, political, and military aspects of guerrilla warfare made this book a seminal text for understanding the shifting dynamics of modern conflict. Despite its well-worn cover and creased spine, this 1970 Avon edition remains a compelling artifact of its era, capturing the intellectual discourse surrounding the era’s most controversial military engagements.
