List of 100 Greatest Generals of All Time

[Cheezy the Wiz]

Aatatturk was a 'general' - later statesman, but he was one of the only able commanders in WWI in Ottoman Turkey.

Mao had a decent relationship with his generals and he often directed military planning during the early years.

I should rather think of Mao as an influential general if he did nothing other than write On Guerrilla Warfare; that he did far more certainly earns him a spot on a Top 100 List.

thx, theres actually reliable accounts on Mao in China on his military campaigns(but Idont think you can fnd all of the details in Wikipedia though. )Maybe I'll make a Mao's Campaigns thread.

You might start with this: The Long March.

What about Arthur Currie?
He was the Canadian General during WWI and he perfected the creeping barrage, which was the main reason the Canadians took Vimy Ridge.
