Riassunto

The history of world is replete with wars, some waged with hostile motives, while the others to defend the honour of one s motherland. Undoubtedly, courage and patriotic fervour are essentials of a good soldier, it is his skills in this trade primarily that enable him to gain eminence in it. It is precisely this aspect which this book expounds.

What constitutes the bare essentials of military art? How are these to be negotiated? What are pitfalls? All these, amongst others, have been detailed in this work. It lays down a vivid account of the strategy adopted by able warriors and distinguished generals, the use or lack of which made or marred them.

Though the landscape is set in respect of pre mid-nineteenth century wars, yet is a masterly piece of work on the subject, enunciating principles, that hold their relevance to this day, the reading of which shall keep absorbed the tradesmen of the field and a civilian alike
