It will also
be of great value to those who are undergoing training.
It is full of practical information presented in a simple and direct
manner and gives in detail much data not easily found elsewhere. It is a
useful book, easily understandable by those who have had little or no
military experience.
It will be useful not only at training camps but it will be of very
great value at schools and colleges where military instruction is being
given.
The authors of this book have performed a valuable service, one which
will tend to facilitate and aid very much the development of military
training in this country. In addition to the purely mechanical details
of training the book presents in a very effective and simple manner the
tactical use of troops under various conditions.
In a word it is a useful and sound work and one which can be commended
to those who contemplate a course in military training.
