Unique Elements, This Annotated Edition
Classic Literature written in times before the morrow, sophisticated in a way modern classics lack.

Discourses on the First Decade of Titus Livius by Niccolo Machiavelli Translated By Ninian Hill Thomson is a book of epic hisotry first published in 1531 Italy.

A masterpiece that exists in a period of incomparable distinction, a work that is truly deserving of praise. Books from the past have a quality that is unmatched by works from the present. This book is excellent traditional writing, and you won't be disappointed, classic literature at its finest.

Sneak Peak
A good captain, therefore, has two things to see first, to contrive how by some sudden surprise he may throw his enemy into confusion; and next, to be prepared should the enemy use a like stratagem against him to discover and defeat it; as the stratagem of Semiramis was defeated by the King of India. For Semiramis seeing that this king had elephants in great numbers, to dismay him by showing that she, too, was well supplied, caused the skins of many oxen and buffaloes to be sewn together in the shape of elephants and placed upon camels and sent to the front. But the trick being detected by the king, turned out not only useless but hurtful to its contriver. In a battle which the Dictator Mamercus fought against the people of Fidenae, the latter, to strike terror into the minds of the Romans, contrived that while the combat raged a number of soldiers should issue from Fidenae bearing lances tipped with fire, thinking that the Romans, disturbed by so strange a sight, would be thrown into confusion.

Synopsis
Discourses on the First Decade of Titus By Niccolo Machiavelli is a compelling documentary that tells the human story behind the man . Although Machiavelli discusses what can be learned from many other eras, including contemporary politics, the title of the work indicates that the subject of the work is the first ten books of Livy's Ab urbe condita, which relate the expansion of Rome through the end of the Third Samnite War in 293 BC. consists of three volumes with 142 numbered chapters and a dedication letter. The unnumbered prefaces of the first two volumes serve as their introductions. The coincidence that Livy's history had 142 volumes in addition to its introduction and other numerological oddities that appear in Machiavelli's works have been discussed quite a bit. According to Machiavelli, the first book will examine events that occurred inside Rome as a consequence of public advice, the second, choices taken by the Roman people about the expansion of their empire, and the third, how the deeds of specific persons made Rome great . .
