<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>"A must for those who aspire to follow the profession of arms."--Maj. Gen. George S. Patton <p/> Here is a unique book that emphasizes the attainment of military excellence through reading and field experience. Written to help men and women prepare for positions of command in the American Armed Forces, it is a product of the author's years of discussions with military commanders about their roles as decision-makers, moral standard bearers, and energizers of military organizations. <p/> In his commentary on the problems of the commander as tactician, strategist, warrior, trainer, mentor, disciplinarian, and moral leader, the author analyzes and recommends both classical and current readings that are available for those who seek an expanded vision of their potential as commanders. This book is designed to raise new challenges to conventional thinking about the art of military command.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Roger H.
