If you try to search for the guy: The Spelling is Carl von Clausewitz, with an "e" after the Claus (not like Santa Claus, who is written without an "e").

Picky, picky
Next thing you know you'll want to spell Klinton with a C.
American speakers do tend to change spelling and shorten things. Besides the E in Clausewitz is silent.
BTT for a Great Political and military theorist second only to Machiavelli.

So, Have I mis-spelled the name, or is there more than one accepted spelling?
