In the excellent new book The Savior Generals, written by one of our favorite guests, Victor Davis Hanson, we look at five different generals and how they met the challenges they faced on the battlefield. Ranging from the Athenian general Themistocles to General William Tecumseh Sherman to General David Petraeus, Hanson shows us a common theme that runs through these heralded military leaders. It’s a fascinating look at leadership and military tactics, and how they shaped the reputations of these great men.
