Some recommendations for strategy and combat.

Go Rin No Sho (the book of five rings) - by Miyamoto, Musashi.

-I've found this one to be extremely helpful in my training.

You might also try Sun Tzu's book the "The Art of War" although this is more strategy than tactics where musashi's book is more tactics than strategy. as a side note for those that do not want to purchase or are short on cash these are periodically available on the bargain rack at Barnes n Noble or free online from the gutenberg project.

ok so those are the classic eastern books on war but does anyone have recommendations for anything western? I know there are some SCA books out there but for the life of me cannot think of any names right now.
