| This is a really good simple book. Napoleon had alot of stuff for warfare that we can use for everyday lives. | |

| He wrote it while he was still in power. I don't know exactly the date off the top of my head but Stonewall was an avid reader of the book and it was on him when he went down. Intresting, huh? The book has 26 or so maxiums or arts of war and most of them are no more then two paragraphs long. But, then they have all the examples of each one that shows how it worked in warfare. I think he wrote the examples to, but, I am not to sure. I found it at Barnes and Nobles. He actually wrote an autobiography using letters he had written. I've read it and found it intresting. On the first page it says: And people thought I couldn't write. | |
