The definitive translation of Sun-tzu's timeless classic of military strategy, Art of WarArt of War is almost certainly the most famous study of strategy ever written and has had an extraordinary influence on the history of warfare. The principles Sun-tzu expounded were utilized brilliantly by such great Asian war leaders as Mao Tse-tung, Giap, and Yamamoto. First translated two hundred years ago by a French missionary, Sun-tzu's Art of War has been credited with influencing Napoleon, the German General Staff, and even the planning for Desert Storm. Many Japanese companies make this book required reading for their key executives. And increasingly, Western businesspeople and others are turning to the Art of War for inspiration and advice on how to succeed in competitive situations of all kinds. Unlike most editions of Sun-tzu currently available (many simply retreads of older, flawed translations), this superb translation makes use of the best available classical Chinese manuscripts, including the ancient "tomb text" version discovered by archaeologists at Linyi, China. Ralph Sawyer, an outstanding Western scholar of ancient Chinese warfare and a successful businessman in his own right, places this classic work of strategy in its proper historical context. Sawyer supplies a portrait of Sun-tzu's era and outlines several battles of the period that may have either influenced Sun-tzu or been conducted by him. While appreciative of the philosophical richness of the Art of War, this edition stresses Sun-tzu's practical origins and presents a translation that is both accurate and accessible.

Tiny but convenient!
Color: White, Color: White
Long review: TLDR; it’s cute, pretty durable, tiny but spacious, and handy!
First, I feel I should mention—it’s very tiny! I didn’t look at the dimensions, so that’s my fault, haha, not taking points off for it lol. It’s not big enough to fit, say an iPad Pro, but maybe a mini! It’s height is probably enough for a small book, and it’s width is definitely enough for a regular sized book. Also the length from back to front of the bag: it’s very thick! So it fits a lot for the size. It fits my about 1.5 inch thick wallet (about 5-6 inches long), my keys, a mini hairbrush, and a bag I use with toiletries like pads/tampons, mini body spray, mini hand cream, a tiny metal wallet with bandaids, hair ties, q-tips, and cotton rounds, and a couple chapsticks. The front pocket is pretty spacious too, as it fits my AirPods with a case and a bunch of keychains and dangly things on it.
The straps are long and adjustable. It looks easy to clean but I haven’t spilled anything or gotten anything on it so it’s a little hard to say. I’ve included a video and pictures for reference!
It came pretty smushed and squashed into a flat little pancake but it only took a little while to go to it’s intended shape. I left it full of stuff to mold it overnight (like if you stuff it gently/loosely with, say, a t-shirt or two overnight, it’ll morph into the right shape)
The puff ball is cute, and it’s staying on pretty well, but the elastic thing holding it on is slowly stretching a little so it doesn’t look like it’s glued on like I liked at first, but it still looks good!
It’s lasted a while now, probably a few months with no issues.
Basically, I like it and it’s handy for going to the mall or store, or if you bring very small stuff to the amusement park. (It won’t fit a water bottle, but it’ll fit smaller stuff)
In the video, I showed me unpacking all the stuff it can fit, and in the first picture is all that stuff. In the second picture I show the size of my 12.9 inch iPad Pro to as comparison, and in the third picture I show how it barely doesn’t fit.
Hope this helps!!

Poor packaging
Color: Gold Pink
Cute backpack, but very poor packaging causes permanent creases in the outer leather material. If this backpack was for myself I would have returned it, but it’s something a 10 yr old will overlook.
