Guerra Fantastica : The Portuguese Army In The Seven Years War by A Barrento is a History Paperback Book.

This book deals with a series of military operations that occurred in Portugal in 1762 and 1763, during the Seven Years War, and which have been largely dismissed by the historiography. They are collectively called the Guerra Fantastica, 'Fantastical War', given the fact that the military units of the countries involved carried out multiple movements while not engaging in any battle. This is an important piece of research, based on archival material. AUTHOR: Antonio Barrento (born in 1938) graduated in Military Sciences from the Portuguese Military Academy and completed the Staff Courses of the Portuguese Institute of High Military Studies (IAEM) and of the Ecole Militaire in Paris. He was lecturer at the IAEM, where he taught various subjects, including Military History, Tactics and Strategy, and was visiting Professor at the School of Social and Political Studies (ISCSP), where he taught Strategy. As a military officer, he spent eight years in Angola, Mozambique and Timor. Following his promotion to general, he worked for NATO at Supreme Headquarters Allied Powers in Europe (S.H.A.P.E.) in Mons, Belgium, and was Portugal's Army Chief of Staff from 1998 to 2001. He is a member of the Advisory Board of the Portuguese Commission of Military History. He is a member of the Lisbon Geographic Society (of which he was Vice-President) and honourable academician of the Portuguese Academy of History. He is the author of around 100 articles published in journals and books and has published seven books on military history, on strategy, and on the decolonisation of East Timor. 40 b/w illustrations

Ideal for readers interested in history.
