Geocache Description:


Four Hundred SistySixth in the Famous People (FP) Series - Sun Tzu

One of the oldest surviving military literary works is The Art of War by the Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu. Written in the 6th century BC, the 13-chapter book has had a huge influence on Eastern and Western military planning, business tactics, and beyond.

Both the Classical Greeks and Romans wrote prolifically on military campaigning. Amongst the best known works are Julius Caesar's commentaries on the Gallic Wars and the Roman Civil war, written about 50 BC. Two major works on tactics come from the late Roman period: Taktike Theoria, by Aelianus Tacticus, and De Re Militari ("On military matters") by Vegetius. Taktike Theoria examined Greek battle methods, and was most influential in the Byzantine world and during the Golden Age of Islam. De Re Militari formed the basis of European military tactics until the late 17th century. Perhaps its most enduring maxim is "let he who desires peace prepare for war."

Prepare yourself for a real Military Overview.
