TACTICAL DEDUCTIONS FROM THE WAR OF 1870-1. 



By Captain A. Von Boguslawski. Translated by Colonel Lumi.ey 

 Graham, late 18th (Royal Irish) Regiment. Demy 8vo. Uniform with 

 the above. Price 7s. 



' Major Boguslawski's tactical deductions from the war are, that infantry still preserve 

 their superiority over cavalry, that open order must henceforth bo the main principles of 

 all drill, and, that the chassepot is the best of all small arms for precision. . . . We 

 must, without delay, impress brain and forethought into the British Service ; and we 

 cannot commence the good work too soon, or better than by placing the two books (" The 

 Operations of the German Armies" and " Tactical Deductions ") we have here criticised 

 in every military library, and introducing them as class-books in every tactical school.'

THE OPERATIONS OF THE GERMAN ARMIES IN 



FRANCE, FROM SEDAN TO THE END OF THE WAR OF 1870-1. 



With Large Official Map. From the Journals of the Head-quarters 

 Staff, by Major Wm. Bltjme. Translated by E. M. Jones, Major 

 20th Foot, late Professor of Military History, Sandhurst. Demy 8vo. 

 Price 95. 



"The book is of absolute necessity to the military student. . . . The work is one of 

 high merit and . . . has the advantage of being rendered into fluent English, and is 

 accompanied by an excellent military map.'— United Service Gazette. 



' The work of translation has been well done ; the expressive German idioms have been 

 rendered into clear nervous English without losing any of their original force; and 

 in notes, prefaces, and introductions, much additional information has been given.' 



Athenaeum. 



' The work of Major von Blume in its English dress forms the most valuable addition 

 to our stock of works upon the war that our press has put forth. Major Blume writes 

 with a clear conciseness much wanting in many of his country's historians, and Major 

 Jones has done himself and his original alike justice by his vigorous yet correct translation 

 of the excellent volume on which he has laboured. Our space forbids our doing more than 

 commending it earnestly as the most authentic and instructive narrative of the 6econd 

 section of the war that has yet appeared.'— Saturday Review.

HASTY INTRENCHMENTS. By Colonel A. Brialmont. 

 Translated by Lieutenant Charles A. Empson, R.A. Demy 8vo. 

 Nine plates. Price 6s. 



*A valuable contribution to military literature.' — Athenceum.' 



' In seven short chapters it gives plain directions for performing shelter- 

 trenches, with the best method of carrying the necessary tools ; and it offers 

 practical illustrations of the use of hasty intrenchments on the field of battle. — 

 United Service Magazine. 



' It supplies that which our own text-books give but imperfectly, viz. hints as 

 to how a position can be best strengthened by means ... of such extem- 

 porised intrenchments and batteries as can be thrown up by infantry in the 

 space of four or five hours . . . deserves to become a standard military work.'
