The book is considered a classic in the field of martial arts and is still widely read and studied today.My Way of strategy is the sure method to win when fighting for your life one man against five or ten. There is nothing wrong with the principle ""one man can beat ten, so a thousand men can beat ten thousand"". You must research this. Of course you cannot assemble a thousand or ten thousand men for everyday training. But you can become a master of strategy by training alone with a sword, so that you can understand the enemy's stratagems, his strength and resources, and come to appreciate how to apply strategy to beat ten thousand enemies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
