The Science of War - A Collection of Essays and Lectures 1891-1903

About this book

A guide to handling cavalry and men on the field of battle. Chapters included are an introduction to war, strategy, employment of cavalry, notes on Wellington, modern tactics and much more. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
