Practice Of Manoeuvring A Battalion Of Infantry 1770 [Paperback]

Prefaced by a scorching and hilarious attack on the 'greedy and insidious' compilers of an official Army manual of infantry manoevres, this is a treatise on the same subject by a serving officer who claims his tables 'will answer almost every situation a battalion should be in' - not only in battle but on the march. Illustrated by fine and clear coloured diagrams, thisis a brief but Indispensible work of unfailing interest to serious students of 18th century warfare
