Excerpt from Tactical Principles and Problems This book has been written in the hope that it may help junior officers of the regular service and militia who are beginning the study of tactics. In tactics, as in other sciences, the first steps are the most difficult to make, especially if the student has no instructor, as necessarily must frequently be the case. With this fact uppermost in his mind, the author has endeavored so to present the subjects herein treated that the book may be of special value to the student who is working without assistance. The problems have been restricted to the simpler and more usual operations of small forces of infantry and of cavalry, and of these two arms united. Artillery has not been dealt with because it is believed that the student will make better progress if he becomes familiar with the tactics of infantry and cavalry before undertaking the much more difficult subject of the three arms combined. After the student has mastered this book, he may take up with advantage the study of the many excellent works on the applied tactics of the three arms, most noted of which is Griepenkerl's Letters on Applied Tactics.

Excerpt from Some Notes on the Solution of Tactical Problems: Departments of Military Art the Army Service Schools No amount of study of the theory alone of the art will, by itself, fit one to meet the emergencies of war with skill and certainty. To acquire such, not only must its principles be learned, but the habit, as well, of their application to concrete cases must be established. A man might read volumes on how to lay brick, but he could hardly attain skill thereat until he has long experience in the actual handling of his trowel. The military mind, like the mason's hand, requires practice in the use of its tactical tools to acquire dexterity. We do not have to wait for war to present its vital problems in order to begin the training of our officers in applied tactics. But the teaching of tac tics in time of peace by application to concrete situa tions requires no defense. To confound the critics of that system, one need but to point to the German Army, and to the map of Europe today.

Excerpt from Problems in Applied Tactics: With Solutions I am certain the intelligent reader will have no difficulty in finding for himself the reasons for any of the measures adopted which are not explained in the text. I wish to repudiate the widespread fallacy, which is often alleged as an excuse for careless work, that Tactical arrange ments are merely matters of individual opinion or caprice. This idea results in two practical evils: (1) Candidates have not the necessary esteem for their drill books which the latter doubtless deserve, as they contain the views of the most com petent authorities, not only of their own country, but of every nation that has secured a military reputation. (2) Candidates are inclined to think that unless they happen to hit upon the examiner's view, there is no chance of scoring high marks.
