The Art of War: Great Commanders of the Modern World is a magisterial survey of the military giants of the world since 1600. The Art of War is an authoritative and lavishly illustrated account of the lives and careers of the 50 greatest military commanders of the period, from Cromwell to Konev, from Marlborough to Moltke, and from Petain to Patton. Every commander is profiled in a concise and informative 3000-word article which not only brings its subjects vividly to life via a lively, fact-driven narrative, but also analyses and assesses his tactical and strategic gifts.
