A SELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY ON UNCONVENTIONAL WARFARE. PART 1
Abstract
Unconventional warfare by United States Joint Chiefs of Staff and Army definition con sists of the three interrelated fields of guerrilla warfare, evasion-and-escape, and subversion. Part I of this bibliography (the present volume) encompasses these three fields; Part II (to be published later) will cover unclassified sources in the field variously labeled counterguerrilla warfare, counterinsurgency warfare, or operations against irregular forces. Inasmuch as the 400-odd entries in this volume were selected from over 1,800 entries in the SORO information storage system, the bibliography is not comprehensive. Rather, it presents a cross section of available literature on the various unconventional warfare subjects included. Because entries were selected to provide this cross sectional view, users of the volume can feel confident, after reading all of the sources referenced under any subject, that they have been exposed to a fairly complete picture of the understanding of the subject as it exists in the unclassified literature. It is anticipated that later SORO bibliographies of classified sources will complete the picture for qualified users with respect to important aspects of unconventional warfare activities which, primarily because they are clandestine in nature, tend to be written about only in classified documents.
