A truly great thinker
Although the book focusses on 'Bushido', in its pure sense Musashi's way of strategy is ever applicable to modern leadership.
The narration matches the content well.

Worth a listen
Although some parts of the writing pertain to combat only I firmly believe that some parts maybe drawn onto many characteristics of one's life.

Quick read, simple to understand.
As above but impossible to understand without conviction. You can understand what the words represent but he walked the path.
