The Art of War by Tobiasi
The art of war is a book about war that's not about war. It has to be translated from this ancient chinese into english. There are so many translations, and the differences between them are stark. The one translation i like best was by an English historian in the early 19 hundreds or late 18 hundred. He had heard rumor that napoleon had got a copy of the art of war,. And so they had tracked down this sort of art of war and translated it. Wouldn't have understood it if i hadn't read that translation at that time.
