Manual of Guerilla Tactics: Specially Prepared And Based On Lessons From The Spanish And Russian Cam

One of the excellent, concise Bernards Pocket Books, intended to show members of the Home Guard and the regular forces that war is not conducted in a gentlemanly way - it is kill or be killed. The authors describe the effective methods and equipment needed for close-quarter battle. Subjects cover house to house fighting, sniping, silent killing, booby traps, fuses, detonators, camouflage, destroying supplies, and communications, with a special section on the preparation and use of explosives for Home Guard and service use. A late war, commercially published manual based on lessons from the Spanish and Russian campaigns, it is of value even today in its message to anyone faced with the enemy.
