Sinopsis
Excerpt from Fraser's Magazine, Vol. 12: July to December 1875
It should not be forgotten that to Sir Sterndale Bennett we owe the introduction and appreciation of much of Bach's music in England. It was he who founded the Bach Society, which used to meet in the Lower Concert Room, in Hanover Square. He arranged the Passion music into a comprehensive and complete form, and it was he who brought over the parts of the Christmas oratorio from Germany, and produced it in London two or three years ago.

Excerpt from Fraser's Magazine, Vol. 12: July to December 1875
In the matter of our Eastern army we would do well to take a leaf out of the book of our neighbours the French, as regards their Algerian corps. Their chasseursd'afriq ue and their Zouaves might in their organi sation serve as an excellent model for our Indian army of the future. These regiments serve in Africa and nowhere else. They may, in the event of war - as was the case in the Italian and the franco-german campaigns - be called upon to take the field elsewhere, but only for a season. So soon as peace is pro claimed they have a right to demand being sent back to Algeria. The men are nearly all volunteers. The officers can exchange with their comrades in the Line corps, but as a rule it is found that in all ranks those who make the best soldiers for Algiers are of little or no use in home garrisons, and generally seek ere long to return to the wilder life of Africa. In the ranks of these French Algerian corps are to be found a class of volunteers who shun service in France, but who make the very best soldiers for the work they have in Africa. There are men who have failed in life - young men of good family who have run through their means, who cannot dig, who are ashamed to beg, and would be almost more ashamed to enlist in a regiment serving in their native land. 3 As a matter of course a certain portion of these men 0 from bad to worse; but as a rule t ey reform, throw all their energies into their new career, and after some years obtain com missions in the army. Very few years ago there was in the French service no fewer than two marshals.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the shortcomings of the British army in the face of the changing political environment and warfare strategies of its European neighbors. The author argues that the present method of recruitment has failed to produce an army large enough to defend the country and that a system of universal conscription is the only viable solution. The author goes into great detail on how conscription would work in England and what changes would need to be made to the organization of the army. This book is a valuable contribution to the debate on the future of the British army and provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges facing the country's defense. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
