Classic Warfare Books:
The
Art of War by Sun Tzu - Special Edition
The first section of this book contains the complete thirteen chapters of Sun Tzu's masterpiece in Chinese together with the English translation of Lionel Giles, without notes or commentary. This presentation avoids the objection that commentary tends to clutter and obscure the clarity of thought of the ancient military genius. The second section of this book includes the translation with explanatory notes and critical commentary.
