"The History of the German General Staff" by Walter Goerlitz is a concise and well written account of that greatest of war planning and making bodies, the Prussian and German General Staff. Goerlitz begins his history in the days of Federick the Great, tracing the origins of the staff to the supply officers and royal aides attached to the royal person. Goerlitz continues through the 1700's, tracing the rivalries between royal offices tasked to supply and direct the royal army.
