About this book

How infantry, artillery and cavalry should be handled together on a battlefield is the subject of this 1865 treatise by Francis J. Lippitt, formerly colonel of the Second Infantry, California Volunteers. He argues that a commander must first understand each arm separately. The contents treat infantry attack and bayonet charges, squares, skirmishers and defence against cavalry, then the posting and fire of artillery, then the formations, charge and supports of cavalry. Lippitt cites the bayonet attacks of the Russian general Suwarrow as an example.
