Tactics, Volume 1 (of 2). Introduction and Formal Tactics of Infantry

by William Balck

The first volume of “Tactics,” which appeared in its first edition in 1896, and for which the preparatory work reached back more than a decade, now appears in its fourth edition in a completely changed form.

The British Campaign in France and Flanders 1915

by Arthur Conan Doyle

In the previous volume of this work, which dealt with the doings of the British Army in France and Flanders during the year 1914, I ventured to claim that a great deal of it was not only accurate but that it was very precisely correct in its detail. This claim has been made good, for although many military critics and many distinguished soldiers ha..
