Chinese Mythology & Thirty-Six Stratagems by Zhang Ziyun

The book itself is an interesting thing to look into two very different things. The first half is a mythology aspect that is itself that is well detailed in writing and makes getting the book by itself worth it. The second half focuses on the stratagems the titles mentions but has a focus on mentioning on ancient Chinese history frequently which makes knowing ancient Chinese history a need to fully appreciate this section of the book. Even if you are not well versed in ancient Chinese history, there is thankfully plenty to learn from this section and can be a great aid in becoming a better strategist.
