Civil War Infantry Tactics: Training, Combat, and Small-Unit Effectiveness
ISBN: 9780807179581 / Angielski / Miękka / 2023 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For decades, military historians have argued that the introduction of the rifle musket-with a range five times longer than that of the smoothbore musket-made the shoulder-to-shoulder formations of linear tactics obsolete.

He contends that long-range rifle fire did not dominate Civil War battlefields or dramatically alter the course of the conflict because soldiers had neither the training nor the desire to take advantage of the musket rifle's increased range. Drawing on the drill manuals available to officers and a close...
