"The Art of War" is the widely acclaimed book of military strategy written by the legendary Chinese general and philosopher Sun Tzu. In this treatise, Sun Tzu lays out his basic philosophy of how to wage military campaigns, including a description of the correct temperament of a general, flanking and attack strategies, the use of spies, the employment of deception and counter-intelligence and dozens of other time-honored pieces of military advice. The book has been read and studied by scores of leaders, presidents, generals and even corporate titans and Sun Tzu is often praised as the finest military strategist in history. We are proud to present this manuscript in its original and unabridged format, as translated by Lionel Giles, M.A. in 1910
