Contents Description:

Like a great poet, a great general may leave his mark on those who follow. A distinct style of command can link one successful military strategist with another, centuries later. In fact, the intelligent student of warfare discerns recurring patterns of generalship and discovers that over the course of thousands of years  particular ways of doing battle surface repeatedly, as one commander walks in the footsteps of his admired predecessors in the deadly art of war. - from the inside flap
