Great Commanders. Aphorisms. Parables. Legends.

The sayings and thoughts of great commanders are woven together in this book into a unified science of military art, a unique code of soldier and officer honor, celebrating heroism, love, and devotion to their Motherland, while also revealing the... secrets of military mastery, invaluable to this day. Through the millennia — from the Persian king Cyrus, Chinese sage Sun Tzu, Hunnic leader Attila, and Alexander the Great, through Alexander Nevsky, Suvorov, Kutuzov to our contemporaries Charles de Gaulle and Georgy Zhukov — dozens of destinies and hundreds of phrases write the Book of Warrior Wisdom, revealing to us the greatness of people capable of winning battles, expanding the borders of the Motherland, and defending its territories from enemies. The life and wisdom of the twenty-five greatest commanders of all time will be presented to us in the form of their most important aphorisms and quotes. This is the best gift for every true or future defender of the Motherland.
