The Army Quarterly and Defence Journal was a British defence journal established in 1920. Its early contributors included T. E. Lawrence, Hugh Trenchard, and Basil Liddell-Hart as well as junior officers, and later it acted as a conduit for the dissemination of British Army orthodoxy, and as a forum for the discussion and questioning of British defence policy. Discussion of the failures and successes of the First World War gave way to articles about guerrilla warfare and counterinsurgency after WWII and then to the concerns of the Cold War and nuclear age. Supplements were published titled The Army Quarterly Series and describing the defence forces of individual countries. It ceased publication in 1999.
