"The movements of armies cng.nged in battle have often been compared 1o 

 those of the chess-board, and wo cannot doubt that there are certain principles 

 of tactics in actual war as in that g.amo, which may determine the result inde- 

 jx-ndently, in a great measure, of the personal strengtli and courage of the men 

 engaged. The difference betr>een these principles .as applied in tho American 

 Army and in the Austrian, is so wide as to have suErtrested the translation of 

 tho work before us, which. contains tho whole result of the famous Field-Marshal 

 Kadetzkt's cxncrienco for twcniy-flvc years, while in supremo command in 

 Italy." — A^V?/' Yor^- (''^ufury.
