ResumoThe conception of a ‘British Way in Warfare’ articulated by Basil Liddell Hart has had an enduring appeal. In part a reaction to the attrition strategy of the First World War, Liddell Hart offered an alternative vision of pragmatism, indirect approach and strategic manoeuvre. Though outwardly an appealing view, particularly in today's era, it does contain within it crucial deficiencies. Regardless, Liddell Hart's undisputable legacy has been sparking and framing the rich debate over British strategy ever since.
