Then for the hundredth time his eyes ranged the ground which somewhere concealed the enemy. In front of him and below him the grass land stretched uninterrupted by hedge or ditch, save where about eight hundred yards distant a stream wound a course roughly parallel to the position, until a mile and a half away it reached the dark mass of woodland which swept over the crest of the next ridge and down to its foot. A road emerged from the wood, crossed the level ground, and curved to the left of the position The whole plain was bare of any living thing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Art of War To those persons to whom the study of the art of war is a new one, it is recommended to begin at the article Stra tegy, Chapter III., from that point to read to the end of the Second Appendix, and then to return to Chapters I. And II. It should be borne in mind that this subject, to be appreciated, must be studied, map in hand: this re mark is especially true of strategy. An acquaintance with the campaigns of Napoleon I. Is quite important, as they are constantly referred to by J omini and by all other recent writers on the military art.

Book Synopsis Action Front (Classic Reprint) by : Boyd Cable
Download or read book Action Front (Classic Reprint) written by Boyd Cable and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Action Front I make no apology for having followed in this book the same plan as in my other one, Be tween the Lines, of taking extracts from the official despatches as texts and endeavoring to show something of what these brief messages cover, because so many of my own friends, and so many more unknown friends amongst the reviewers, expressed themselves so pleased with the plan that I feel its repetition is justified. There were some who complained that my last book was in parts too grim and too terrible, and no doubt the same complaint may lie against this one. To that I can only reply that I have found it impossible to write with any truth of the Front without the writing being grim, and in writing my other book I felt it would be no bad thing if Home realized the grimness a little better. But now there are so many at Home whose nearest and dearest are in the trenches, and who require no telling of the horrors of the war, that I have tried here to show there is a lighter side to war, to let them know that we have our relaxations, and even find occasion for jests, in the course of our business.

Book Synopsis A Savage War of Peace by : Alistair Horne
Download or read book A Savage War of Peace written by Alistair Horne and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2012-08-09 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoroughly sharp and honest treatment of a brutal conflict.The Algerian War (1954-1962) was a savage colonial war, killing an estimated one million Muslim Algerians and expelling the same number of European settlers from their homes. It was to cause the fall of six French prime minsters and the collapse of the Fourth Repbulic. It came close to bringing down de Gaulle and - twice - to plunging France into civil war.The story told here contains heroism and tragedy, and poses issues of enduring relevance beyond the confines of either geography or time. Horne writes with the extreme intelligence and perspicacity that are his trademarks.

Download or read book Reflections on the Art of War (Classic Reprint) written by Sir Reginald Clare Hart and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reflections on the Art of War The numerous favourable reviews of the first edition of this book, and the encouraging notice that has been taken of it by officers whose opinions carry weight, have induced me to venture upon a new and greatly enlarged edition which, with its detailed index, will, I trust, be found useful to officers studying the art of war, and to all who require a work of reference to incidents connected with the great battles of ancient and modern times, and with the generals - good and bad - who have left their names in history. By dwelling on the characteristics of many of the greatest commanders of all ages, I have endeavoured to make the first chapter an interesting introduction to the study of war. A certain familiarity with the characters of those who have been leaders of men in battle is absolutely essential to the right understanding of military operations. This preliminary study will assist and fortify the reader, because the acts and sayings of the men who have actually made history are everywhere brought forward by me as credible evidence in support of what I urge as sound teaching of the art of war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rifle in War Some two years ago. The author undertook the preparation of a suitable text for use in the Service Schools at Fort Leavenworth, and published a portion of The Rifle in War. This first edition was prepared under a considerable stress of other work and while very incomplete and fragmentary served its purpose as a basis for his conferences on this subject with the students of the several schools. The need for a more permanent and complete presentation of the subject, however, led to a revision and completion of the Origi nal edition and although the author's work as an instructor in two departments interfered with the proper preparation of the text of the revision to a very considerable extent, it was at last accomplished.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Warfare Mr. Blanchon is at the same time an authority on every aspect of modern war, a cogent thinker with an extraordinary range of vision, and the attempt which he makes in this book, not only to expound the war that is but also to forecast the warfare of the future, is a contribution to present-day knowledge and speculation which far exceeds in importance the visions of Jules Verne, whose name he so modestly invokes.

This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Minor Tactics In most of the studies an endeavor has been made not only to set forth certain principles of minor tactics, but also to enable the reader to form for himself a mental picture of the manner in which troops might well be handled in case the conditions assumed in the various studies actually existed in the field. It is perhaps needless to say that the department does not consider any one of the solutions herein as the only correct solution to the problem presented in the particular situation, but merely as a solution that is regarded as reasonable. The same is true of all solutions prepared by the department for the various problems included in the course in military art at these schools.

Download or read book Knowledge for War written by B. C. Lake and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-15 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Knowledge for War: Every Officer's Handbook for the Front The Syllabus is necessarily long and, Owing to the number of Official books and to the0 length at which they deal with the selected subjects, most young officers find it difficult to cover the full course in the short time available. There is also a good deal in the Syllabus which cannot be found in the manuals. In' Knowledge for War references are given to the Official manuals for everything in them touching the prescribed course. Since the manuals were written many new ideas and methods have been adopted, especially from the experience gained during the present war. These have been dealt with in pamphlets issued from time to time by the -war Office. As few young officers have access to them, an attempt is made in the present volume to condense all that is necessary within convenient limits. It must be clearly understood that Knowledge for War is in no way intended to replace the official text books, but should be used in conjunction with them. A copy of the Syllabus, which has been closely adhered to, is printed in the beginning as a guide to the contents of the book. For obvious reasons more than half the book is devoted to Trench Warfare. I feel that no apology is needed for devoting so much space to this important subject in all its aspects, even though it has meant the exclusion of chapters on Open warfare.

There they would have learned that although the same great principles of strategy brought victory to Hannibal, to Caesar, and to Napoleon, yet tactics have undergone countless fluctuations in the course of centuries, on account of the development of armament.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Undertones of War I know that it is very local, limited, incoherent; that it is almost useless, in the sense that no one will read it who is not already aware of all the intimations and discoveries in it, and many more, by reason of having gone the same journey. No one? Some, I am sure; but not many. Neither will they understand that will not be all my fault. I know that memory has her little ways, and by now she has concealed precisely that look, that word, that coincidence of nature without and nature within which I long to remember. Within the space of even one year, this divinity seems to me to take a perverse pleasure in playing with her votaries.
