1910ref. ABE-1790652300611Octavo liv 204 pp. plus corrigenda. Exceptionally rare in original wrappers an unrestored museum-grade rarity for the discerning collector. Unlike the vast majority of surviving copies that were later rebound in hard cloth or leather over the past century this 1910 first edition retains its original printed yellow paper wrappers as issued by Luzac & Co. Preserving its original full sheet size 24.816.6 cm the book presents completely untrimmed edges with noticeably broader margins than typically encountered in trimmed or rebound copies usually trimmed to approx. 24.115.8 cm if not more severely cropped. The wrappers exhibit light soiling with a few minor smudges to the front cover; the original spine remains substantially intact with light rubbing and minor scrapes; a 3 cm loss at the spine head has been repaired with a small sympathetic paper fill. The interior is clean and crisp throughout with light creasing to some leaves as issued and completely unmarked save for a subtle three-word English ink note "Five Elements Theory" on page 36. Stamped on the title page is a neat Chinese collector's red seal reading "Qiu Shui Zhen Cang" 秋水çè— "Treasured Collection of Qiu Shui" a literary art-name derived from Chuang Tzu's "Autumn Floods" likely belonging to an early 20th-century scholar-collector active within the European Sinological circles surrounding Lionel Giles.

1910ref. 149882London: Luzac & Co 1910. First complete English translation of arguably the best twentieth-century translation of Sun Tzu's seminal work on military strategy preceded only by the first translation into French of 1772 by French Jesuit Jean Joseph Marie Amiot and partial translation into English by British officer Everard Ferguson Calthrop of 1905. Royal octavo original printed yellow wrappers bound into full contemporary cloth-covered boards gilt-lettered morocco spine label. Provenance: William George's Sons bookseller's label affixed to front wrapper. Lionel Giles the leading Sinologue of his day was not fond of either of his predecessor's translations of the work declaring Amiot's translation an "imposture" of the original and Calthrop's knowledge of Chinese "far too scanty." It was not until the publication in 1963 of Samuel Griffith's translation that Giles met any sort of challenge at all. In very good condition. A very rare and desirable example of this definitive cornerstone of military strategy. The Art of War attributed to Sun Tzu is a foundational text of Chinese strategic thought composed in the late Spring and Autumn period c. 5th century BCE. Structured into thirteen succinct chapters each addressing a discrete principle of warfare the treatise synthesizes tactical philosophical and psychological insights into a coherent and enduring strategic doctrine. Firmly established as the preeminent work among the Seven Military Classics of imperial China—officially codified in 1080 CE during the reign of Emperor Shenzong of Song—The Art of War has exerted a sustained influence on the development of military theory throughout East Asia for over two millennia. Its emphasis on indirect strategy deception and the integration of political economic and moral dimensions of conflict has rendered it indispensable not only to military commanders but also to scholars and statesmen. The treatise's strategic paradigms have long transcended their original martial context. In modern times The Art of War has been appropriated across disciplines informing Western and Eastern approaches to diplomacy corporate strategy legal theory competitive sports and organizational leadership. Its adaptability and intellectual rigor continue to make it a critical reference point in discussions of power conflict and human behavior. Luzac & Co hardcover
