About The Art of War
"Originally written in Chinese by Sunzi and Wutzu as The Articles of Suntzu and The Sayings of Wutzu and translated into English by Captain Everard Ferguson Calthrop, The Book of War: The Military Classic of the Far East is one of the most expansive works of literature on warfare in Chinese literature. Written during a time when China was a mosaic of different principles and ambitions, Suntzu put war tactics and strategies in words, spelling out when to go to war, what to do and what not to do while at war, and how to treat one’s enemy if victory is the ultimate goal. The Japanese applied these war strategies more than the Chinese where generations of soldiers swore by Sunzi and Wutzu. Captain E.F. Ferguson translated these war strategies into English, and even though we know not much about these Chinese masters, except the ruthlessness of Sunzi and the immorality of Wutzu, the translation immortalizes them in these words and pages.
