Niccolò Machiavelli - The Art of War by Niccolò MachiavelliMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
Not what you would expect
This book has a giant shadow problem. Meaning it dwells in the shadow of Machiavellis other book The Prince. Whereas that book is a masterpiece that will be passed down for the rest of human existence this book is a fart. It's very boring. Its poorly edited with sentences and paragraphs that go on for pages. All to say something that makes no sense unless you have a battlefield map with figures to display what is being said. All the way to, I don't know who is talking in this part. The whole thing is a mess. There are a few wise bits of knowledge but for the majority of the book I dreaded reading more confusing junk that did nothing for me. The Sun Tzu book of the same title is vastly superior to this book. Just read that and The Prince. This one will stay on the shadow of those books because that's the way it should be.
