Military Map-Reading, Field, Outpost and Road Sketching (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Military Map-Reading, Field, Outpost and Road Sketching

The manner of using the Field or Cavalry Sketching Case (which is now an article of issue) is thoroughly explained, as it involves the only val nable method of hasty sketching - namely, the plane table method.

The laborious protractor and prismatic com pass method of mapping directions has been eu tirely discarded, and contours are only discussed in connection with map-reading.
