From our ministers, and consuls, in Japan, China, India, Italy, Russia, Austria, France, and England, we received great kindness and every assistance necessary to complete our mis sion. I have already reported that through the action of our lega tion at Berlin my comrades and myself were excluded from the German manoeuvres, and that, as a consequence, we were pre vented from witnessing the practical application of modern tactics in the army in which they have found their widest development.
The Military Policy of the United States. E-book. Formato PDF Emory Upton - Forgotten Books, 2017 -
In preparing General Upton's manuscript for publication the editors have found it necessary to eliminate certain portions extraneous to the author's subject as well as the numerous repetitions which an unrevised manuscript is almost certain to contain. It is particularly unfortunate that the author's untimely death in the midst of his literary work should have prevented the completion of his treatise on the Nation's military policy to include the entire Rebellion, as well as to give the chapters already written the benefit of his personal revision.A chapter on the military laws of Virginia, another on Confederate military appropriations, and a third on the military policy of Rome, have been omitted entire, but nothing has been excluded or eliminated from the published work which, in the judgment of the editors, would not have been cheerfully sanctioned by the distinguished author could he have been consulted in the matter.
