INFANTRY CAMP DUTY, FIELD FORTIFICATION, AND COAST DEFENSE.
Prepared and arranged by CAPT. L. V. BUCKHOLTZ, with plates, 16mo. muslin. Price 50 cts. by mail, post paid.
"This is a mere pocket-book in size, but it is crowded with instruction for military men—instruction gathered and condensed from the great bulk of works on military science. It encloses grains of wheat, threshed, as it were, out of the great stack—is simple, convenient and comprehensive. It is from the pen of Captain Buckholtz, of this city, a gentleman who has seen service on the continent of Europe, and who is an accomplished officer."—_Richmond Dispatch._
"We are always pleased to meet with a Southern book, one written, printed and bound in our own section by our own people, and we therefore greet with pleasure two military works now before us, by Captain Buckholtz, and published by J. W. Randolph, Richmond.
The first is "_On Infantry Camp Duty, Field Fortification, and Coast Defense_." Under the head of Infantry Camp Duty we are instructed in out guards, patrols, vanguard, side-guard, rear guard, ambuscade, surprise, and transports. In Field Fortification we have instructions on fortifications, regularly constructed forts, attack and defense, fortresses, and a description of the principal parts of fortified works.
The chapter on Coast Defense is most excellent.
As an elementary work on the subjects treated, this book has no superior, and we commend it to our military.
The second book is, "_Tactics for Officers of Infantry, Cavalry and Artillery_." This is a most complete military work, comprising instruction in the three departments of the army, and contains much information which we have never met with in the popular military works of the day."—_Norfolk Southern Argus._
