Meanwhile, the French army was being hammered to a pulp at Verdun, thanks, in part, to Joffre's inattention to intelligence reports that predicted a German offensive on the Western Front and his inability to grasp German Commander Falkenhayn's strategic objectives and operational methods. Doughty has written a solid, single-volume, chateau-view history of the French army's participation in the war that focuses on doctrine, manuals, and operational orders issued by senior commanders forced to reconcile the requirement for action to the paltry means at their disposal.

Military history can and should play a role, even a prominent role, in debates over strategy and policy in wartime. The problem begins when partisans, polemicists, and ideologues pluck examples from past military campaigns or wars that are subsequently interpreted in ways that support policy and strategy decisions. In the case of the current "long war," neoconservative and neoimperialist historians construct and reconstruct interpretations of the past in ways deliberately calculated to promote and sustain a policy agenda. The danger is that history twisted by some partisans into an apologia for contemporary American policy, and ultimately as a weapon of intimidation to silence doubt, dissent, disagreement, and even debate, serves neither the cause of history, nor of policy and strategy formulation, nor even of democracy in a moment of national peril.
