Overview
In On War, Karl von Clausewitz ascribes two attributes to all successful warriors: "intellect and temperament." Some warriors, outstanding in both, can be called geniuses. This unique anthology presents accounts by such notable warriors, relating how and why they evaluated a significant problem, threat, or opportunity at an inflection point of conflict. These narratives cover convincing battlefield victories and sage direction of policy and strategy. Prioritizing the warriors' own words, these accounts provide granular details of the reasoning behind decisive actions. Illuminating the minds of great warriors from Julius Caesar to Moshe Dayan, this anthology offers sources for mature reflection and ready resources for all students of military history.
