Infantry Tactics, Double and Single Rank (Classic Reprint)

Description: This book delves into the evolution of infantry tactics in the United States Army during the late 19th century, specifically focusing on the adoption and implementation of Brevet Major-General Emory Upton's innovative system. The author meticulously details the transition from traditional formations and maneuvers to Upton's more flexible and adaptable approach, highlighting the system's advantages in speed, efficiency, and effectiveness on the battlefield. Set against the backdrop of the American Civil War and subsequent military modernization efforts, the text explores the challenges of integrating new technologies, such as breech-loading rifles, into existing tactical doctrines. The author emphasizes the importance of adaptability and continuous improvement in military strategy, showcasing how Upton's system addressed the limitations of older tactics and better prepared soldiers for the complexities of modern warfare. Through a comprehensive analysis of Upton's system, this book offers valuable insights into the development of infantry tactics and the ongoing quest for battlefield superiority. The author's meticulous research and clear explanations make this work an essential resource for military historians, tacticians, and anyone interested in the evolution of warfare. Ultimately, the book underscores the enduring relevance of Upton's principles and their lasting impact on the United States Army.
