Overview

"This text is the first translation of Xenophon's ""Manual on the Duties of a Cavalry Commander"" in over a century. Xenophon's straightforward, practical approach to leadership made this book a valuable military reference for as long as cavalry continued to be essential to warfare. Sections include: tactics; ambushes; deceiving the enemy; morale-building; discipline; drills; horsemanship - including units of resident aliens in the cavalry troop."
