Bonjour, cette commande n'a pas été achetée correctement エチオピア紛争がわかりやすい Very interesting book with a lot of in depth information about the split between Ethiopia and Eritrea.
Thereafter italso describes the Badme war, About which not much is known, The ground operations and Air forces of both sides are described, The book is objective and does not pick sides, Its mainly about the military operations between the countries and not about politics, although it briefly describes the political reason for the outbreak of both wars.
Easy to read. Can recommend it for everybody interested in little known African Wars, Excellent insight into a rarely known conflict in Africa, The insights are surprising and gives a brand new in depth perspective on a rarely described, yet very significant large scale conflict, The text is great and supported by good photos and excellent color plates of both AFVs and aircraft, The only reason I do not give the bookare the low quality maps, The maps are black and white and difficult to understand, Further the text frequently makes reference to key places that are not shown on the maps, Ethiopia, a country of ancient origins
in eastern Africa, remains a military powerhouse of that continent until our days, Nowadays involved in the war in neighboring Somalia, Ethiopia was also involved in half a dozen of other armed conflicts over the lastyears.
Crucial between these was the Eritrean War of Independence, Fought, this was one of biggest armed conflicts on the African continent, especially if measured by numbers of involved combatants, It included a wide spectrum of operations, from classic counterinsurgency COIN to conventional warfare in mountains with the latter being one of the most complex and most demanding undertakings possible to conduct by a military force.
Campaigns run during the Eritrean War of Independence often included large formations of relatively well equipped forces, led by well trained commanders, along well thought out plans, based on homegrown doctrine.
The air power played a crucial although not necessarily decisive role in many of battles,
Nevertheless, most of details about this conflict remain unknown in the wider public, Similarly, relatively few Western observers are aware of relations between the Eritrean liberation movements, and various dissident and insurgent movements inside Ethiopia although the synergy of these eventually led the downfall of the so called Derg government, in.
While the first volume in this mini series spanned the history of wars between Ethiopia and Eritrea betweenand, the second covers the period since.
Correspondingly, it is providing coverage of military operations that led to the fall of the Derg government in Ethiopia of, the period of Eritrean military buildup and a complete reorganization of the Ethiopian military in thes, and concludes with the first detailed account of the so called Badme War, fought between Ethiopia and Eritrea in period.
It is illustrated by many contemporary photographs, maps and color profiles, .
