On Conspiracies by Niccolo Machiavelli
A collection that discusses the dangers of conspiracies and the component parts of an army. It also gives advice on tactics and discipline, and explains why promises made under force ought not to be kept.
Niccolo Machiavelli (1469-1527) was appointed secretary to the Florentine Republic in 1498. He was dismissed from this post in 1512 and forced to withdraw from public life, after which time he wrote The Prince, a handbook for rulers and The Discourses, from which this selection is taken.
