Henderson, George Francis Robert. Science of war; ed. by Neil Malcolm. [*]$4. Longmans.
The author of “Stonewall Jackson” called the Herbert Spencer of military tactics was a master of the theory and practice of the art of war. This collection of essays and lectures which separately have been regarded as authoritative along their respective lines of thought, treat such subjects as “War,” “Strategy,” “The tactical employment of cavalry,” “Tactics of the three arms combined,” “Training of the infantry for the attack,” “Military criticism and modern tactics,” etc. The fourteen essays are preceded by a memoir by Col. Henderson’s staunch admirer and patron, Lord Roberts.
“Henderson is at his best in driving home with quiet persistence, and with the help of countless apt examples, the lessons of pure military warfare.”
