About Author

Niccolò Machiavelli

Niccolò di Bernardo dei Machiavelli-Italian diplomat, writer and political philosopher was born in Florence, Italy, on May 3, 1469 to the parentage of Bernardo Machiavelli and Bartolomea Nelli. In 1502 Machiavelli married Marietta Corsini, who bore him four sons and two daughters. His grandson, Giovanni Ricci, is credited with saving many of Machiavelli's letters and writings. He died in the city on June 21, 1527. His tomb is in the church of Santa Croce in Florence. (Sources: The Historical, Political, and Diplomatic Writings of Niccolò Machiavelli by Christian E. Detmold, Encyclopedia of World Biography, Biography.com, Wikipedia)

Description

This 1573 English edition of Niccolo' Machiavelli's Dell' Arte Della Guerra, translated by Peter Whitehorne, presents Machiavelli's influential dialogue on military organization, discipline, and strategy. It outlines the structure of a well-ordered army, the training of soldiers, the use of formations, and the principles of effective command. This printing includes additional material by Whitehorne, along with related military treatises bound with the volume in later years. The work reflects Renaissance thinking on warfare and the revival of classical Roman military principles.
