Trade Review
No other study approaches this subject so expertly. - Journal of Southern History; ""Jamieson fills a gap in the tactical history of the U.S.Army from the end of the Civil War through the Spanish-American War. He unfolds how an army spread out on frontier posts, [and] largely preoccupied with warfare against the native peoples, Reconstruction, and daily routine, nevertheless made progress toward a system of tactics to take it into the twentieth century."" - Civil War History
