The Cavalry General

Riassunto

"The Cavalry General" by Xenophon is a treatise written around 350 BC. This ancient Greek military manual focuses on the duties and responsibilities of the cavalry commander, known as the hipparchus. Written by a soldier and historian with firsthand experience, it offers practical guidance on leading mounted forces in battle. For centuries, it stood as the earliest known work on horsemanship until an even older Hittite text was discovered in 1931. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
