This failure led the French to misidentify the Algerian strategic center of gravity and by their actions, to make French centers of gravity, their legitimacy to rule and their will to fight, vulnerable to attack. Demonstrated by analyzing French and Algerian will, intelligence, and civil-military relations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Naval War College\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1511432861\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781511432863\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/25\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 24\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.02h x 8.50w x 0.05d","brand":"Naval War College","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48623059894527,"sku":"9781511432863","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/tactical-success-is-not-enough-naval-war-college-9781511432863","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
