Being a profession as old as mankind itself, the mere word "mercenary" often triggers images of danger, toughness, adventure, deadly skills, sex and money in a life as exotic and unreal as some classic action movie. Often said to no longer exist, rendered obsolete by the multi-million dollar private military companies that reshaped private warfare since 2001, mercenaries in the classic way continued their existence and work without any real changes, except for a rise in both overall demand and sorts of opportunities to work since the 80s and 90s, when their existence was proved on photos in the famous publications like "Soldier of Fortune", "Gung Ho" and some of the best of the trade took the time and effort to even write manuals on how to get into that dangerous, demanding and often outright crazy occupation. Seasoned and experienced mercs like Paul Balor in his "Manual of the Mercenary soldier" or Frank J. Camper, running his "Mercenary School" and publishing several books including the original "Mercenary Operations Manual" in 1986 and "Live to spend it" opened that hidden world, together with an opportunity to become a part of it, to anybody dedicated enough to pay the price in sweat, blood, hunger and sleep deprivation. Yet, the changes of our world and its wars together with all the naysayers in the big www claiming the old-school mercenary type to be long vanished, made an update necessary. Here it is.No matter if you're eager to start a full-time career as a hired gun, want more information about this trade to decide if it's for you or you're only curious, you'll get your answers.Or, maybe, you simply want to acquire the skills and know-how of a professional mercenary to improve your chances of protecting those you care about in a world of wars lacking frontlines; wars that don't end on borders in lands far away but instead are fought by enemy forces that might carry out their next attack in a church, a shopping mall or cinema in your hometown!This books goal is to make sure that you are prepared for participating in any modern war as an independent, single operator - increasing to the maximum your chances to "live to spend it".

This volume explores the enigmatic primary source known as the ancient military manual. In particular, the volume explores the extent to which these diverse texts constitute a genre (sometimes unsatisfactorily classified as ‘technical literature’), and the degree to which they reflect the practice of warfare. With contributions from a diverse group of scholars, the chapters examine military manuals from early Archaic Greece to the Byzantine period, covering a wide range of topics including readership, siege warfare, mercenaries, defeat, textual history, and religion. Coverage includes most of the major contemporary siege manual writers, including Xenophon, Frontinus, Vegetius, and Maurice. Close examination of these texts serves to reveals the complex ways in which ancient Greeks, Romans, and Byzantines sought to understand better, and impose order upon, the seemingly irrational phenomenon known as war. Providing insight into the multifaceted collection of texts that constituted military manuals, this volume is a key resource for students and scholars of warfare and military literature in the classical and Byzantine periods.
