This
was the Civil War soldier's and NCO's "how-to" guide to military
duties in garrison and in the field. It covers of all ranks and services:
infantry, cavalry, artillery, ordnance, quartermaster, signal, saddlers,
hospital stewards, cooks, bands, as well as spies, pickets, expressmen, special
forces. There is much quaint yet practical advice on survival, cooking and
nutrition, pay, punishment, prisoners of war, and many long-extinct soldier
skills. It contains the Articles of War used during the Civil War.
August
Kautz (1826-1896) was a captain in the Sixth U.S. Cavalry and a brigadier
general of U.S. volunteers during the Civil War. He is the author of several
other military handbooks.
