"El Arte de la Guerra", de Sun Tzu, es un tratado clásico sobre estrategia militar que trasciende su contexto bélico para ofrecer una profunda reflexión sobre el liderazgo y la toma de decisiones. El texto, que data del siglo V a.C., se compone de trece capitulos que analizan diferentes aspectos de la guerra, abordando desde la planificacion y la tactica hasta la naturaleza del conflicto y la psicologia del enemigo. Su estilo conciso y aforistico permite a los lectores extraer lecciones valiosas aplicables a diversas areas de la vida, incluyendo los negocios y la politica, en un contexto literario que resuena con la filosofia oriental y el pensamiento critico. Sun Tzu, un general y estratega chino, es considerado una figura emblematica en la historia militar y en la filosofia. Su experiencia en el campo de batalla y su profunda comprension de la naturaleza humana lo llevaron a redactar esta obra que ha influido a lo largo de los siglos, no solo en el ambito militar, sino tambien en disciplinas como la administracion y la gestion corporativa. Su enfoque pragmatico y su enfasis en la importancia de la preparacion y la prevision destilan un conocimiento que sigue siendo relevante en la actualidad. Recomiendo encarecidamente "El Arte de la Guerra" a cualquier lector interesado en la estrategia, el liderazgo y la autoconciencia. Este texto atemporal invita a reflexionar sobre la confrontacion y el arte de alcanzar la victoria de maneras que trascienden la mera lucha fisica, proponiendo un enfoque integral que enriquece tanto el pensamiento academico como la practica diaria.

El que lo intento primero fue el capitan Andres Manso, que rechazado de las fronteras del Peru por los regidores de la ciudad de la Plata, paso el Pilcomayo con animo de establecerse en la margen occidental de este rio; y por haber perecido a manos de los Chiriguanos, dejo a esta parte del Chaco el nombre de Llanos de Manso.Entretanto las poblaciones avanzaban por todas partes, y antes que expirase el siglo XVI, que habia sido testigo de tantas hazañas, se habian fundado Santa Fe, Santiago del Estero, Esteco, San Miguel del Tucuman, Salta, Jujuy, que formaban una zona habitada desde las costas del Parana hasta los valles de Tarija.Pedro de Angelis

For his exceptional work Smith was awarded with Pulitzer Prize for History.Aseveryone understands, the conflict with Mexico has been almost entirely eclipsed by the greater wars following it.

The story of the United States Army is always growing and changing. Historians constantly seek to reinterpret the past while accumulating new facts as Americas Army continues to be challenged on new foreign battlefields. Nor does the Army, as an institution, ever stand still. It necessarily changes its organization, materiel, doctrine, and composition to cope with an ever-changing world of current conflict and potential danger. American Military History provides a comprehensive but brief account of Armys past. The history of an active organization tends to expand rapidly as the organization grows larger and more complex. The first volume covers the Armys history from its birth in 1775 to the eve of World War I. The second volume of this edition takes up that story and extends it into the twenty-first century and the early years of the war on terrorism.

"Weapon of Choice" presents a history of the U.S. Army special operations forces in Afghanistan from 11 September 2001 to 15 May 2002, during Americas global war on terrorism. The purpose of the book is not to resolve Army special operations doctrinal issues, to clarify or update military definitions, or to be the "definitive" history of the continuing unconventional war in Afghanistan. The purpose is to demonstrate how the war to drive the Taliban from power, help Afghan people, and assist the Afghan Interim Authority (AIA) rebuild the country afterward was successfully accomplished by majors, captains, warrant officers, and sergeants on tactical teams and aircrews at the lowest levels.

His novels and short stories mostly deal with colonial soldiering in Africa. While his fictional accounts of life in the pre-1914 Foreign Legion are highly romanticized, his details of Legion uniforms, training, equipment and barrack room layout are generally accurate, which has led to suggestions that Wren himself served with the legion.
