Bernhardi, Frederick von. Cavalry in future wars. *$3. Dutton.
War 7–19.
“This book was written at the outbreak of the late war in South Africa.... In the course of the first few chapters, Gen. Bernhardi analyzes the functions of the cavalry as modified by the changes that have occurred since the war, and later explains the difficulties which in the future will confront all cavalry operations unless the cavalry leader and his men have been ‘perfected down to the minutest detail.’”—N. Y. Times.
