Publisher Description: This new publication of Art of War is based on the ancient Chinese military treatise that is attributed to Sun Tzu. Tzu was a high ranking military general and strategist during the late Spring and Autumn period of Chinese military and social dominance. Composed of 13 chapters, each of which is devoted to one aspect of warfare, it is held by many to be the definitive work on military strategies and tactics of its time, and is still read for its military insights and examination of leadership qualities. The Art of War is one of the oldest and most successful books on military strategy in the world. This contempory exploration of Sun Tzu's text, by writer and Combat Service-Connected Disabled Veteran, PW Covington is designed to be practical and applicable to those that are fighting and have fought as members of the US Military during its era of Desert Warfare. |
