Good Bios Of Military Commanders Throughout History

I recently purchased this book and I think that it's a pretty good assemblance of short bios of some of the most sucessful military commanders throughout history and I really like that it includes the well-known(i.e. Napoleon, Rommel, Lee, Jackson, Washington, Hannibal, etc.) as well as some of the "unknowns"(such as Windgate) and have intresting bios on all of them. The only problem that I have with this book is that some of the quotes are slightly wrong or have been attributed to the wrong person. With that, I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to learn more about these people and their achievements.
