This samurai strategy books is the first widely available English
translation of Yamamoto Kansuke's classic treatise on strategy and
tactics. Secrets of the Japanese Art of Warfare is Thomas Cleary's
translation of the seminal writings attributed to Yamamoto Kansuke
on Japanese martial arts and military service. A mysterious man of
humble origins, Yamamoto distinguished himself in the service of
the redoubtable Takeda Shingen. Yamamoto was a career soldier and
founder of the so-called "school of certain victory," from which
the famous Miyamoto Musashi (The Book of Five Rings) emerged. His
school developed the art of discerning situational combat advantage
so that a warrior was able to commit to action only when success
was virtually assured. Translated and accompanied with helpful
insights by Thomas Cleary, one of the foremost translators of the
martial wisdom of Asia, this book is for all persons engaged in
military, law enforcement, or emergency response, as well as for
martial artists, athletes, business executives, diplomats and
politicians.
