What makes a general great? What should strategic leadership look like? What are successful supreme commanders made of?

In answering these questions, retired Lieutenant Colonel ML Cavanaugh traces the campaigns of America’s greatest commanders at war.

Its implications impact competitive fields like business, sport, and politics.
