Synopsis
Excerpt from Notes on Field Fortifications
The power to maneuver, whether strategically or tactically, is essential to success. The side which, from any cause, loses the power of maneuver in strategical combinations will be at a disadvantage in the decisive battle. If it further loses the power of tactical maneuver, final defeat is inevitable.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to the use of field fortifications in warfare. Drawing on historical examples and military theory, the author explores the principles of defensive organization, the construction of simple rifle trenches, and the strategic deployment of artillery. The text emphasizes the critical role that field fortifications played in shaping the tactics of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The author argues that while fortifications are a defensive tool, they should never be used to stifle a commander's offensive spirit. He stresses that effective field fortifications are a critical component of offensive maneuver and are not merely a defensive tactic. By highlighting the interplay between offensive and defensive strategies, the author offers insights into the tactical and strategic considerations that shaped battlefield organization during a period of rapid technological change. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex relationship between warfare and military engineering in the pre-World War I era.
