Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1855 edition. Excerpt: ...the art of war.

Such an abstract, if made by a scientific individual, might serve as one of the books for examination of officers on promotion. On the continent, officers of the army are afforded every possible facility for the study of history, on the principle, "L'histoire est lefidele miroir du monde." The Archduke Charles, of Austria, has recorded his opinion thus: "L'histoire est la meilleure ecole de Vhomme en general, et de Vhomme de guerre en particulier."
