The best known. of all eighteenth-century military treatises in the English language. The author was in 1727 lieutenant-colonel of the 2nd Horse, had seen service under Marlborough, and was to serve again as a general officer under Cumberland in Scotland and Flanders; he was an officer of sound judgement, and an author who organised his ideas and his prose with the greatest clarity.
