Patton once said "I think it is necessary for a man to begin to read military history in its earliest and hence crudest form and to follow it down in natural sequence permitting his mind to grow with his subject until he can grasp without effort the most abstruse question of the science of war."
I really like this idea. I've been searching around different reading lists and I find that most are focussed on recent military history and events or are focussed on the actions/history of a single unit or element. Is anyone aware of a list that could suit the above requirements as laid out by Patton?
