General Rules for the Non-Commissioned Officers and Guides of a Regiment of Infantry.

Beschreibung

Blue cloth. 18mo (4 by 6 inches). 58pp plus ads. First edition. This manual on infantry tactics was written for the Connecticut State National Guard by Lieutenant-Colonel R.B. Fairchild of the 4th regiment. The preface states: "Non-commissioned officers will find it greatly to their advantage to study carefully not only to become proficient as guides- responsible for the direction, the distance, and the step- but to familiarize themselves with the manner of carrying the colors- with their respective positions at review, and inspection- also with the form for dress parade- guard-mounting and the duties of sentinels". There are 3 pages of ads at the end for clothiers and tailors of military uniforms. A near fine copy with some light wear to the spine tips. The gilt-lettered cover is fine and bright. The text is fine with some light soiling and wear. One page is smudged in the lower left corner. Scarce.
