Mihály Lajos Jeney, born in Transylvania, was not only a general but also the author of one of the most important works on small war. His experience in the Austro-Ottoman wars, the War of the Austrian Succession, and the Seven Years' War allowed him to create a compendium of knowledge on conducting partisan operations. This book, written from the perspective of a practitioner, offers a unique look at the tactics and strategies that were effective in the 18th century.

In "The Partisan," Jeney describes the ideal partisan corps as a small, mobile unit designed to operate behind enemy lines. Its task is reconnaissance, disrupting supply lines, seizing fortresses by surprise, and unexpected attacks on the enemy's rear. It is not only a tactical manual but also a study of the character of the partisan, his qualities, and skills.

This edition, enriched with an introduction by Mikołaj Piotr Borkowski, transports the reader to the time of the Bar Confederation, when the Polish translation of Jeney's work was extremely relevant. Borkowski, a connoisseur of history and Oriental studies, introduces the context of the era and shows the importance of "The Partisan" for the strategists and commanders of that time. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the military and the art of conducting guerrilla warfare.

This book is not only a collection of tactics and strategies but also a testimony of the era. It allows you to understand how war was perceived in the 18th century and what methods were considered effective. It is a fascinating journey through time that allows you to look at modern conflicts from a new perspective. "The Partisan" is a read that inspires, teaches, and makes you think.
