A dynamic and exciting way to understand success and failure, through the life of Hannibal, one of history's greatest generals. The life of Hannibal, the Carthaginian general who crossed the Alps with his army in 218 B.C.E., is the stuff of legend. And the epic choices he and his opponents made-on the battlefield and elsewhere in life-offer lessons about responding to our victories and our defeats that are as relevant today as they were more than 2,000 years ago. A big new idea book inspired by ancient history, Hannibal and Me explores the truths behind triumph and disaster in our lives by examining the decisions made by Hannibal and others, including Albert Einstein, Eleanor Roosevelt, Steve Jobs, Ernest Shackleton, and Paul Cézanne-men and women who learned from their mistakes. By showing why some people overcome failure and others succumb to it, and why some fall victim to success while others thrive on it, Hannibal and Me demonstrates how to recognize the seeds of success within our own failures and the threats of failure hidden in our successes. The result is a page-turning adventure tale, a compelling human drama, and an insightful guide to understanding behavior. This is essential reading for anyone who seeks to transform misfortune into success at work, at home, and in life.

Praise for Tell Me, Will... Fans of NBC's Hannibal have applauded the show for its creative personification of the cannibal that chew his way into core cultural cannon. Mads Mikkelsen's flourishes, on top of grandiose statements, created a characteristic, elaborate cadence that fans have tried to emulate in fanfiction, cosplay, and other forms of transformative art and experiences. Tell Me, Will...is a collection of the mundane and silly, the potential topics of conversation and musings that, while mundane, show that even the most ordinary of conversations nonetheless become hilarious when rephrased according to one simple principle: "how would Hannibal say this?"

NATIONAL BESTSELLER For millennia, Carthage’s triumph over Rome at Cannae in 216 B.C. has inspired reverence and awe. No general since has matched Hannibal’s most unexpected, innovative, and brutal military victory. Now Robert L. O’Connell, one of the most admired names in military history, tells the whole story of Cannae for the first time, giving us a stirring account of this apocalyptic battle, its causes and consequences. O’Connell brilliantly conveys how Rome amassed a giant army to punish Carthage’s masterful commander, how Hannibal outwitted enemies that outnumbered him, and how this disastrous pivot point in Rome’s history ultimately led to the republic’s resurgence and the creation of its empire. Piecing together decayed shreds of ancient reportage, the author paints powerful portraits of the leading players, from Hannibal—resolutely sane and uncannily strategic—to Scipio Africanus, the self-promoting Roman military tribune. Finally, O’Connell reveals how Cannae’s legend has inspired and haunted military leaders ever since, and the lessons it teaches for our own wars.

The Romans' destruction of Carthage after the Third Punic War erased any Carthaginian historical record of Hannibal's life. What we know of him comes exclusively from Roman historians who had every interest in minimizing his success, exaggerating his failures, and disparaging his character. The charges leveled against Hannibal include greed, cruelty and atrocity, sexual indulgence, and even cannibalism. But even these sources were forced to grudgingly admit to Hannibal's military genius, if only to make their eventual victory over him appear greater. Yet there is no doubt that Hannibal was the greatest Carthaginian general of the Second Punic War. When he did not defeat them outright, he fought to a standstill the best generals Rome produced, and he sustained his army in the field for sixteen long years without mutiny or desertion. Hannibal was a first-rate tactician, only a somewhat lesser strategist, and the greatest enemy Rome ever faced. When he at last met defeat at the hands of the Roman general Scipio, it was against an experienced officer who had to strengthen and reconfigure the Roman legion and invent mobile tactics in order to succeed. Even so, Scipio's victory at Zama was against an army that was a shadow of its former self. The battle could easily have gone the other way. If it had, the history of the West would have been changed in ways that can only be imagined. Richard A. Gabriel's brilliant new biography shows how Hannibal's genius nearly unseated the Roman Empire.

* Our summary is short, simple and pragmatic. It allows you to have the essential ideas of a big book in less than 30 minutes. As you read this summary, you will discover that you must be wary of the notion of success as well as the notion of failure. You will also discover : that your identity is built on very precise archetypes; that, during your youth, your definitions of success and failure are conditioned by the example of your parents; that accumulating experience rather than looking for quick success will allow you to assimilate values that will bring you more lasting success; that it is important to be bold and inventive, even after you have succeeded, and even as you get older; that defeat can be an opportunity to reinvent yourself more freely; that it is by transcending both triumph and disaster that you will truly flourish. In 218 BC, Hannibal and his army, after crossing the Alps, arrived in Italy. Over the next year, Hannibal triumphed over Roman armies one after the other, despite having fewer troops. The tactics he devised are legendary and are still studied in military schools today. After this series of overwhelming victories, it was clear to the Carthaginians, as to the Romans, that the war was coming to an end. Hannibal had demonstrated his superiority in battle, and was considered invincible: he personified success. However, while Hannibal remained in Italy for 14 years, and although he remained undefeated during that time, he never conquered Rome. Moreover, a few decades later, the Romans decided to avenge the affront by wiping Carthage off the map. The story of Hannibal Barca, who had devoted his life to the destruction of Rome, who wanted to avenge Carthage and bring it back to prosperity, is that of a bitter failure. How could such resounding triumphs lead to such a disaster? What lessons can we learn from this well-known figure in history? *Buy now the summary of this book for the modest price of a cup of coffee!
