Go Rin No Sho
This is a very short work by Miyamoto Musashi, written in 1645. Thanks to NDD and x_SF_med for the recommendation. I join in their praise of the book.
Although this is not explicitly stated in the book, Musashi was a great Samurai warrior. The book is Musashi's attempt to outline the Way of Strategy (which I believe also might be translated as the Art of War, but perhaps someone from 1st Group would like to weigh in . . .) from the viewpoint of his Ichi school. I would put this book in the same genre as Sun Tzu's Art of War -- it is some deep stuff. As Musashi says over and over in the book, it is something to be studied, not something to be read.
My copy is only 49 pages and I finished it quickly. I do intend to spend more time with it, but now I am reading KOBK by COL Applegate.
