About the author

Reviews

[Erik Tolvstad · Rating 3 out of 5]

It's a book of regulations and instructions, so it's dry as dust. It's still a useful read for anyone interested in the US Army in the period between the Spanish-American War and the Great War. The content shows the army in a period of transition from it's 19th Century mindset, but not yet fully invested in modernizing.
