Excerpt from The Rules of War on Land The idea of codifying the laws of war in their entirety originated with the late Dr. Francis Lieber, professor of political science and international law at Columbia University, New York. He was also the author of the code approved by President Lincoln, after having been examined with great care by General Halleck, himself a high authority upon the laws and usages of war, which was formulated in 1863 as General Orders, No. 100, for the government of the armies of the United States in the field. This order, as was said by M. De Martens at The Hague, has remained the basis of all subsequent efforts in the direction of the humanization of war. The annexe to The Hague convention, which embodies the Rules of war on Land is derived, in great part, from the codification of the Rules of War on Land which was prepared by the Institute of Inter national Law, and which was recommended for adoption by that body at its annual session at Oxford 011 September 9, 1890.

Excerpt from Law and Usage of War: A Practical Handbook of the Law and Usage of Land and Naval Warfare and Prize This book was originally prepared as a treatise on the law of maritime war and prize. For the convenience of the reader at a time when nobody has leisure to wade through the historical or theoretical matter with which a systematic treatise is bound to deal, I have selected from my intended book the material needed for immediate reference. Moreover, the present war being even for this country a war on land as much as (if not more than) a naval war, and there being no quite recent treatise, except the official Manual on war on land, it was suggested that the book should deal with war generally, and as such would be welcomed by laymen as well as by those who have to deal with its legal aspects professionally. Furthermore, to make reference easier, I have broken up the different subjects into short and concise articles, and placed the whole in alphabetical order. The appendices are as complete as it has been possible to make them without swelling the book to unpractical dimensions. The ample references to them and a full index will enable the reader to find at once the exact text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
