The author has taken advantage of peacetime conditions to consult his brother officers in both the Prussian and French armies to distill the essence of infantry battlefield tactics. he covers in depth such manoevres as scouting skirmishing, infantry co-operation with cavalry, forming and maintain squares, patrolling, pursuing a retreating enemy, forming rear guards to cover retreats, attacking and defending bridges and villages. This is a book that will interest anyone concerned with Napoleonic warfare and the development of military tactics in the years before the American Civil War and the Franco-Prussian wars.
