Sun Tzu
Sun Tzu lived in China in the fourth century B.C., serving as a court minister during the “Warring States” period. He delivered his pronouncements about war over the course of his career, but his words were recorded by other hands.
Karl Von Clausewitz (1780-1831) was a Prussian soldier who fought in the Moscow campaigns of 1812 and 1813. He spent over a dozen years writing On War, dying before his book saw publication in 1832.
Ralph Peters is a retired army officer and the author of a noted book on strategy, Fighting for the Future: Will American Triumph? He is also the author of the novels The Devil’s Garden and Traitor.
