Dear Friend,
Wars begin. Freedoms fade. Hard-won peace unravels.
The question is why.
One answer: we’ve stopped studying military history. And when that knowledge
fades, so does our ability to understand today’s conflicts—or anticipate
tomorrow’s.

Victor Davis Hanson believes this is no small matter.
In a new ebook from the Hoover Institution, Why We Should Study War, Hanson
examines what military history reveals about human nature, conflict, and the
cost of preserving peace. His analysis draws on historical case studies and
connects them to the challenges facing the world today.
Without knowledge of military history, we risk:
* Repeating past mistakes
* Making uninformed decisions about current and future conflicts
* Undervaluing the sacrifices made for our freedoms
I'd like to share this ebook with you—which includes Hanson's core arguments
for studying war along with his answers to key questions about deterrence,
WWII, and essential military history reading.
Inside, you'll discover:
* How studying war is, in essence, an attempt to prevent it
* Why human nature and the patterns of conflict remain constant across time
* What battles from Shiloh to Verdun to Okinawa teach us about sacrifice
* How military history provides moral education about the cost of freedom
Why the United States—"born through war, reunited by war, and saved from
destruction by war"—must never forget this knowledge
* Understanding the past is essential so we can engage more seriously with
the present.
I hope this material deepens your appreciation for military history—and
informs how you think about peace, conflict, and public responsibility.
