Synopsis

This concise dictionary provides detailed biographies of 200 of the most significant leaders in land warfare from 1000 AD to 1991: from King Brian Boru to Moshe Dayan, from Harold Hardrada to General Giap. This book covers not only Western leaders, but also many from Asia and Africa, with not only "great captains" but also many more minor figures whose innovative contributions to tactics and leadership have since become recognized as important in the whole sweep of military command down the ages.
