The history of China is a history of warfare. Rarely in its
3,000-year existence has the country not been beset by war,
rebellion, or raids. Warfare was a primary source of innovation,
social evolution, and material progress in the Legendary Era, Hsia
dynasty, and Shang dynasty--indeed, war was the force that formed
the first cohesive Chinese empire, setting China on a trajectory of
state building and aggressive activity that continues to this day.
In "Ancient Chinese Warfare," a preeminent expert on Chinese
military history uses recently recovered documents and
archaeological findings to construct a comprehensive guide to the
developing technologies, strategies, and logistics of ancient
Chinese militarism. The result is a definitive look at the tools
and methods that won wars and shaped culture in ancient China.
