Synopsis

This book examines the military power of European nations and their military deficiencies in the mid-nineteenth century. The author argues that Britain must establish a Home Reserve Army to prevent invasion and to augment its fighting strength abroad. The author favors a reserve system based on the Prussian model, and he proposes several methods for creating this reserve, including re-enlisting discharged soldiers, reducing British forces in India, and shortening the term of service in the regular army. The author also proposes creating a force of Mounted Riflemen for service in India, arguing that such a force would be more effective than the traditional infantry and cavalry mix. Ultimately, the author emphasizes that increasing military preparedness through a Home Reserve Army and innovative tactics like the Mounted Riflemen are necessary for Britain to maintain its national security in an increasingly dangerous world.
