The Ultimate Art of War: A Step-by-Step Illustrated Guide to Sun Tzu's Teachings (The Ultimate Series)

This book is not the Art of War, but rather a concise summary and interpretation. I found the authors insights to be valuable. It’s a good addition to material about the Art of War. I recommend this book.

Have a couple versions of Tsun Tzu. This is the most readable/understandable version that I have encountered. It is very clear to the point translation of concepts presented by the original author.

The Ultimate Art of War is revolutionary in its approach to understanding the concepts of tactics and strategy. Antony Cummins presents the lessons of Sun Tsu in a manner that is easily digestible and applicable. The art of Jay Kane enhances the readability of the text. The art also clarifies the concepts by portraying them in easy to understand symbolism. This book is an excellent addition to the library of enthusiasts of strategy and warfare. Additionally the text enhances the understanding of the texts of Natori ryu, Antony Cummins other books. Definitely a must buy.

This is a very easy to read translation of Sun Tzu's Art of War, and it is a book about so much more than warfare. The concepts Sun Tzu explores are relatable to any type of conflict that all too often arise in human interactions.

I own several copies of the Art of War. This is by far my favorite copy. Love giving this as a gift. Worth the money, art work is wonderful. Clear and concise.

This book is by far the best text I have ever read on Sun Tsu's Art of War. The illustrations and practical explanations are simple and incredibly accessible. Anthony Cummins hasn't just created another translation he has opened a door to classical strategy for the every man/woman. I highly suggest adding this book to any classical or military home library. Well done Ant!

Bought two of these -- one to share with a friend. Best version ever.

One of my favorite translations / versions so far. Right now I would say if you are going to buy Art of War for a friend that has not read it before this is the version I would get them.

The best Art of War

Definitely very easy to read and understand. Clear graphics and not too wordy. The nice hardcover and red/white concept is very much appreciated. Definitely 1 of my favourite books to read.

This is a book to dip in and out of and ponder the teachings. You can see the tactics of Saddam Hussein, Trump, Churchill, and many other leaders in trying to achieve their goals. It reflects the arcane art of Politics and the brutal nature of war - success and survival but not just in the short term, and that is the trick that many fail to grasp of winning the battle but losing the war. The book shows that these ideas are not new but many in power today have never grasped because they have not been taught such ideas, which are the brutal facts of conflict and why many conflicts have failed (like the USA in Vietnam). Very insightful. It would be an interesting exercise to translate these teachings to a modern warfare scenario.

It’s not exactly what I was looking for I was looking for a book that puts the art of war into modern situations. I read this one as I was on holiday and tbh it was actually good and interesting just not what I was expecting.

A fascinating book. Good read but needs to be a bit cheaper really.
