King Khama, Emperor Joe, and the Great White Queen: Victorian Britain through African Eyes
In "Thutmose III: The Military Biography of Egypt's Greatest Warrior King", Richard Gabriel deducts Thutmose's military strategy and operational art, by describing the campaigns he conducted to expand the sphere of influence of Egypt, to punish adversaries, or to subdue an insurgency. Gabriel describes in detail the many joint naval-army ventures into Canaan and beyond, nowadays Lebanon and Syria, and a few military adventures in Nubia, nowadays Sudan. Although an easy and informative read, the deduction of operational art and military strategy from - sometimes even presumed - military actions, based on incomplete archives, with current day knowledge on warfare, and in current day terms is a bit problematic for historians. Great story though!
