Very light foxing and reasonable wear. Bookplate on inside front cover with imprinted name of previous owner - Gustave Ehrenberg. Preface (Recommendation) by Winfield Scott. . . . . . . . . Having overcome many superior forces due to a creative and daring use of tactics to divide and defeat enemy armies, Napoleon used his experience to create his maxims of war, which define his principles and strategies of command and how to optimize the effectiveness of an army. Napoleon took inspiration from generals such as Julius Caesar and Alexander the great, and had a preference for psychological warfare tactics, and the importance of surprise and initiative. Nowadays these maxims can be useful for anyone interested in leading a military or civilian team.
