Art Of War By Suntzu and Other Military Treatises

[Oldposts]

The BEST military treatise and earliest western, is On Cavalry Commander (Ipparhikos) by Xenophon. It is NOT a history with strategisist's input, as Thucidydes' work and it goes far beyond caVAlry matters, though viwed by thwe aspect of the Cavalry commander. Circa 360 BC. A "novelish"-fictious treatise is Kyropedia, of the same author
