Additional Reading

Robert B. Asprey, War in the Shadows: The Guerrilla in History (1975, reissued 2002), surveys guerrilla and counterguerrilla warfare from its origin to the 1990s. Other surveys can be found in Richard L. Clutterbuck, Terrorism and Guerrilla Warfare (1990); and Ian F.W. Beckett, Modern Insurgencies and Counter-Insurgencies: Guerrillas and Their Opposites Since 1750 (2002). David Kilcullen, The Accidental Guerrilla: Fighting Small Wars in the Midst of a Big One (2009), argues that counterinsurgency efforts are doomed to failure if they focus solely on ideological conflict and do not take into account the local and cultural factors that drive insurgents to take up arms.
