Story
Many of the world's leaders have turned to Niccolo Machiavelli's The Art of War as a guide to the fundamentals of war, including Frederick the Great, Napoleon, as well as countless other military leaders. Limited warfare is one of the philosophies promoted in this work. Machiavelli believed that military conflict should be a last resort and should only be considered when diplomacy fails. He was also of the belief that society could only remain stable and secure with a strong state military.

Story
From his perspective in Renaissance Italy, Machiavelli's aim in this classic work was to resolve conflict with the ruling prince, Lorenzo de Medici. Machiavelli based his insights on the way people really are rather than an ideal of how they should be. This is the world's most famous master plan for seizing and holding power. Astonishing in its candor The Prince even today remains a disturbingly realistic and prophetic work on what it takes to be a prince, a king, or a president.

Niccolo Machiavelli's Art of War is one of the world's great classics of military and political theory. Praised by the finest military minds in history and said to have influenced no lesser lights than Frederick the Great and Napoleon, the Art of War is essential for anyone who wants to understand the history and theory of war in the West and for those familiar with The Prince and Discourse on Livy who seek to explore more fully the connection between war and politics in Machiavelli's thought.

Story
Good, modern, civilized Western men today are expected to think like "citizens of the world" - obligated to everyone and no one. Natural, meaningful tribal connections have been substituted with synthetic, disposable consumer identities. Without a sense of who they are and what group they have a place in, modern men are becoming increasingly detached, disoriented, vulnerable, and ever more easily manipulated.

The history of the tablets translated in the following book is strange and beyond the belief of modern scientists. Their antiquity is stupendous, dating back some 36,000 years. The writer is Thoth, an Atlantean Priest-King, who founded a colony in ancient Egypt after the sinking of the mother country. He was the builder of the Great Pyramid of Giza, erroneously attributed to Cheops. In it he incorporated his knowledge of the ancient wisdom and also securely secreted records and instruments of ancient Atlantis.

Story
Hilarious, fascinating, and a roller coaster of dizzying, historical what-ifs, Napoleon's Hemorrhoids is a potpourri for serious historians and casual history buffs. In one of Phil Mason's many revelations, you'll learn that Communist jets were two minutes away from opening fire on American planes during the Cuban missile crisis, when they had to turn back as they were running out of fuel. You'll discover that before the Battle of Waterloo, Napoleon's painful hemorrhoids prevented him from mounting his horse to survey the battlefield.

Save your money, don't buy this copy
Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
I would recommend my friends either buy a hard copy of the books or buy the audio books by a different narrator.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Strategic Thinking Trilogy?
When I stopped the recording and moved on to a different book.
Would you be willing to try another one of Bill DeWees’s performances?
If all of the books he reads are of the same quality I think my money would be better spent elsewhere.
Was Strategic Thinking Trilogy worth the listening time?
The books themselves are classics and great for anyone to read, but the narrator just butchered them.
Any additional comments?
I have read Art of War and Book of 5 Rings before, and wanting to read The Prince I saw this file and thought the price was a great deal. 3 books for 3.95.... I was mistaken, The narrator drones on through the books with almost no pause. The Prince was a smooth reading but the others felt like he was bumbling through two books he either does not understand or had not read before. Do yourself a huge favor, pay the extra money and buy them separately... and by another narrator.

Poor performance detracts from the content.
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
I don't think it was time well-spent because the content was lost with the poor, halting, stuttered performance, particularly with The Art of War. Aside from the awkward pausing, the reader for this part of it seemed like he may have had spittle around the edges of his mouth. I am sincerely not trying to be mean, but I did have to stop listening to it at this point because it turned my stomach, and I wasn't hearing the content at all.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
Different reader.
How did the narrator detract from the book?
Halting speech with awkward pauses and mispronunciations, among others.
Did Strategic Thinking Trilogy inspire you to do anything?
Find another version to listen to.

Don't buy
The person reading the art of war and the five rings is the worst. He has a heavy NE accent, starts off ever sentence loudly this drifts off until you can't hear him, and his microphone is of low quality. The book subjects are great just buy a different version.

Good for the price.
Would you consider the audio edition of Strategic Thinking Trilogy to be better than the print version?
The three books in one listen was a good deal. I enjoyed 'The Prince' the most. The fensing book "5 Rings" was direct and to the point and written from the viewpoint of author feeling he is the very best at what he does. The "Art of War" left me wanting more in the sense, so many people had told me it was such a great book, I was thinking I would enjoy it more, but I did not.

The Masters of Strategy
This collection by the three strategy masters is a must have for anyone that is interested in studying the arts of diplomacy and war. The writings of Miyamoto, Sun Tzu, and Machiavelli have long been held apart as the true lesson plans for successful strategical thinking. A careful examination of this reading will accomplish the same.
Bill DeWees does a decent job. He does make it difficult to stay with the reading at times. He is not the best reader on Audible, but he does a good enough job on this work.

Not bad
The narrator that reads The Art of War, and The Book of the Five Rings was choppy and at times difficult to follow. I also was not impressed at the amount of material not covered in the books.
I would recommend this to people looking for general idea's of the material.
