About This Item
New York: [Geo. F. Watson], 1861. 128pp. Stitched in original printed, color-illustrated pictorial wrappers. Text illustrations. Bit of extremity wear to the wrappers. Very Good.
The wrapper calls this 'Watson's Edition.' Watson published this book, says his introduction dated May 1861, "to give to those gallant men who are so nobly placing themselves in the front rank of the defenders of our National Ensign, the opportunity of procuring, at an expenditure within the means of all, the ONLY standard work for the purpose of instruction in tactics that is now acknowledged."
The book was printed in a number of locations, North and South, in 1861. This is one of the earliest and scarcest.
OCLC 15131066 [5] [as of June 2015].
