Arrianos / Asklepiodotos: Die Kunst der Taktik
Greek and German, ed. Kai Brodersen

The art of tactics fascinated the ancient world. What tactics did 
Alexander the Great use for the conquest of his huge empire? What can 
the Romans learn about it? And how do you train an army today?
Answers to such questions and a unique insight into ancient tactics are 
provided by Arrianus (2nd century AD) in his Techne Taktike and 
Asclepiodotus in a work of the same title, which also employs diagrams 
to illustrate the text.
