Soldiers need strong leaders especially in times of war. They need to be led by someone who is cunning, decisive, and inspiring.

This book takes a look at some of the Generals that may have turned the tide of the war, if only temporarily, through their cunning and daring. They inspired their men and maybe they will inspire you as well. There is the Japanese Admiral that led his men to victory, challenging them to new and innovated strategies. He even opposed attacking the United States, citing that a long term war would be a disaster. Find out where he gained his knowledge of American military abilities. Even the Germans had their share of leaders. Read about the Desert Fox that may have been our enemy but won the respect of many for his treatment of prisoners and his cunning actions on the battlefield.
