The Art of War: timeless military strategy from 6th Century China (Aziloth Books)

Written over two millennia ago in China, The Art of War is the first known rational treatise on the planning and conduct of military operations. It's author, Sun Tzu, was a Chinese strategist who lived between 554-496 BC, during the Spring and Autumn Period of the Middle Kingdom's history. Concise and aphoristic in style, The Art of War represents the distilled wisdom of a great commander, knowledge that men of later generations, including Mao Tse Tung and Ho Ch Minh, have used with great success.
