1 standalone book

Sun Bin was a Chinese general, military strategist, and writer who lived during the Warring States period. He was tutored in military strategy by the hermit Guiguzi and was accused of treason by Pang Juan while serving Wei, resulting in him being branded and crippled. Sun escaped and became a strategist and commander for Qi, defeating Wei at the Battle of Guiling and the Battle of Maling. His work, Sun Bin's Art of War, was discovered in 1972 after being missing for at least 1400 years.
