Sinopsis

The "Art of War - Book Set" is an illustrious anthology that traverses centuries of strategic thought, armed with the profound musings of thirteen seminal contributors. This compendium underlines the universal and timeless nature of warfare, philosophy, and political strategy, as explored through the diverse insights of luminaries from different eras and regions. The collection weaves together varied approaches, from Eastern philosophies embodied by Confucius and Sun Tzu, to Western military strategies elucidated by Carl von Clausewitz and Napoleon Bonaparte. Each piece, while resonant with the unique voice of its originator, contributes to an overarching narrative that illuminates the complexities of conflict and power dynamics. The authors represented in this venerable collection span a wide spectrum of cultural and historical milieus, offering readers a rich tapestry of perspectives. The anthology draws from Eastern, Western, and indigenous strategic thoughts, including the tactical genius of the US Marine Corps and the philosophical depths of Kautilya's Arthashastra. These figures, cultivated in myriad contexts—be it the political astuteness of Machiavelli's Renaissance Italy or the revolutionary fervor of Ernesto Che Guevara—provide a pluralistic lens through which the art and ethos of warfare are dissected and understood. Together, their contributions underscore the anthology's mission to demystify war's enigmatic nature. Readers embarking on this collection are presented with an unparalleled opportunity to immerse themselves in a diverse pool of strategic wisdom. Whether for academic purposes, personal insight, or historical curiosity, "The Art of War - Book Set" stands as an essential exploration of humanity's perennial encounter with conflict. With its wide-ranging perspectives and timeless lessons, this anthology not only educates but also invites reflection on the multitudinous aspects of power, leadership, and strategy, serving as a dynamic platform for dialogue across generations.

    "Blood in the Water is a twisty true crime narrative of greed, suspicion, and revenge, taking us from the high seas to the mansion of an enormously wealthy family. Compelling and cinematic, it keeps you guessing about the complicated family at the heart of this saga until the very last page."—Shawn Cohen, New York Times bestselling author of College Girl, Missing 
      
    Troubled waters hide deadly secrets … 
      
    When Nathan Carman, a young man with a complicated past, is miraculously rescued from a lifeboat bobbing in the unforgiving North Atlantic, questions swirl about the fate of his mother, who is presumed to have drowned when their fishing boat sank. Nathan is in remarkably good shape for being lost at sea for a week, and his account of what exactly happened out there on the waves raises questions from family members and law enforcement. 
      
    Nathan's story of a fishing trip gone awry doesn't quite add up, and suspicion mounts. The mysterious murder of Nathan's multi-millionaire grandfather a few years before had made Nathan's mother an extremely wealthy woman. With a seven-million-dollar fortune at stake, did Nathan commit the ultimate betrayal? Or is there more to this tragic tale than meets the eye? 
      
    From New York Times bestselling author Casey Sherman comes a gripping contemporary true crime narrative for everyone who was fascinated by the Murdaugh murders, and for anyone compelled by the intersection between money, power, and family.
