[PDF] The Art of War

The Art of War: The Oldest Military Treatise in the World is a chinese treatise and non-fiction book by Sun Tzu, published in 5th century BC.

Written over two millennia ago in China, The Art of War is the first known rational treatise on the planning and conduct of military operations. It’s author, Sun Tzu, was a Chinese strategist who lived between 554-496 BC, during the Spring and Autumn Period of the Middle Kingdom’s history. Concise and aphoristic in style, The Art of War represents the distilled wisdom of a great commander, knowledge that men of later generations, including Mao Tse Tung and Ho Ch Minh, have used with great success.

The book contained an in depth explanation and analysis of the Chinese military, from weapons and strategy to rank and discipline. Sun also stressed the importance of intelligence operatives and espionage to the war effort. Because Sun has long been considered to be one among history’s finest military tacticians and analysts, his teachings and methods formed the idea of advanced training for millennia to return.
