Industry Reviews
Focusing on the experience of the French, traces the social, technological, and military shift of infantry tactics from mass volleys in rigid linear formulations to aimed shooting while advancing in open order. The revolutionary army, drawing from a larger social base than had the royal army, substituted flexibility and individual innovation for blind obedience; but it was not until the availability of cheap rifled weapons that accuracy improved to the degree that mass volleys were no longer necessary. First published in 1979; a new introduction surveys recent books on the subject. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
