In thousands of years of Chinese history, only a few people have created great political visions, then possessed the military power (and ruthlessness) to make them a reality. The stories of the few who accomplished this rare balance of brilliance and terror make for compelling reading. Except for Sun Tzu, their names are little known in the West: Duke Huan, Sun Pin, Shih Huang-ti, Hsiang Yu, Liu Pang, and a dozen others. Some grew up in royal families; others straggled from nothing. Some were ferocious tyrants, others benevolent. Some fought valiantly; others schemed behind the scenes. But each warlord left his indelible mark on the world.
