It may seem strange to reference Military books but successful Generals, such as Alexander, have a way when it comes to dealing with people, logistics, and unforeseen issues.

How would YOU deal with 30,000 infantry, 5,000 cavalry, and the logistics of feeding, moving, and preparing for war over a geography spanning 12 time zones?

From a business perspective, it may seem a little dry at times; but take into account the logistics, and it becomes a fascinating read on leadership, vision and focus.
