The Art of War dates to the fifth century B.C and is arguably the most famous military treatise ever written.

Throughout its history, The Art of War has been highly influential. Figures as diverse as Japanese daimyō Takeda Shingen, Chinese communist Mao Tse-Tung, and Finnish field marshal Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim have cited the book as inspirational.

During the Vietnam War the book served as an inspiration and guide for the Vietcong, which brought the book to the attention of the American military.

The focus of this reworking is to preserve the original intent of Sun Tzu as closely as possible.
