Ancient Chinese Warfare
- Synopsis
-
A US specialist in Chinese military and intelligence who advises governments and companies, Sawyer discusses general aspects of warfare in China during legendary and ancient times. He dips into such detail as particular battles or leaders only occasionally to demonstrate a larger trend. Among his topics are ancient fortifications, the Shang Dynasty, metallurgical evolution in China, spears and armor, the chariot and horse, and ancient logistics. He writes for general readers; specialists can find technical military and historical matters in the end notes. Annotation ©2011 Book News, Inc. , Portland, OR (booknews. com)
