Hardcover. Condición: Good. [Von Steuben's Revolutionary War Manual on Drill was written at George Washington's urging. It remained an important guide for the American military through the War of 1812] Rebound in early 20th century 1/2 cloth over marbled boards. Hardcover. Good binding and cover. Foxing. 48 p. ; 22 cm. (8vo). Evans, 26358. ESTC W21724. Prepared by Friedrich von Steuben in 1779 as inspector general of the Continental Army; adopted nationally by the Uniform Militia Act of 1792. 'Washington asked Steuben to serve temporarily as inspector general and to begin his duties by instructing the soldiers in the long-neglected subjects of discipline and drill. To the amazement of the Americans, who were unaccustomed to officers acting as drillmasters, Steuben initially formed a model company, which he personally instructed with the aid of a translator. By April, Steuben had acquired four assistant inspectors and had extended drill instruction to the whole army. Lacking adequate drill manuals, Steuben wrote daily lessons in which he greatly simplified and softened Prussian methods to fit the immediate needs and free-spirited ways of the American soldiers . The transformation that Steuben wrought in the training of the Continental army greatly impressed Washington and other observers. In May 1778 Congress, acting at Washington's recommendation, officially appointed Steuben inspector general of the army with the rank and pay of major general.' (ANB online).
