Notes prises au Mexique livre des conseils pratiques pour l'art de mener une armée en terrain difficile.
Ce texte, rédigé par un officier de la Légion Belge et publié en 1867, présente des observations directes sur la tenue, les marches et le campement, puis sur l’instruction et la discipline. Il combine des détails matériels avec des enseignements moraux destinés à renforcer l’efficacité au combat. Le lecteur suit des notes organisées pour éclairer les choix d’équipement, la base de la discipline et l’entraînement des tirailleurs, en contexte mexicain et dans une optique de transmission à l’armée.
On y découvre une approche pragmatique de la vie du soldat et du chef: prioriser la mobilité, l’autosuffisance et le calme sur le terrain. Le livre aborde aussi des thèmes comme la gestion des personnels, les méthodes de punition juste, et l’importance d’un commandement accommodant et vigilant. Une annexe fournit des détails sur l’armée mexicaine et sur des expériences de contre-guérilla.- Ce que vous verrez guidé pas à pas: l’élémentaire attire du quotidien opérationnel, du vêtement à l’armement, jusqu’aux stratégies de discipline et d’encadrement.
- Des conseils concrets pour l’équipement et l’organisation du bagage d’un officier en campagne.
- Des principes de leadership et de motivation utiles pour les commandants et les sous‑officiers.
- Des réflexions sur l’entraînement, le tir et les manœuvres essentielles pour gagner en confiance et en efficacité.

Other policies
Please note that we cannot accept cancellation requests once an order has been placed.
All Forgotten Books titles are printed on demand. The moment an order is submitted, it is automatically transmitted to our distributor and then forwarded to the printer, where it enters production. This process begins within minutes and is entirely automated.
A cancellation, however, is a manual, multi-step request that must pass through several systems. By the time such a request reaches the appropriate stage, the book has almost always been printed, packed, or already dispatched, which makes cancellation impossible.
For this reason, we kindly ask that you double-check the title, edition, and your shipping details before placing an order.
If you change your mind after ordering, you are welcome to return the book once it arrives, and a refund will be issued in accordance with AbeBooks’ return policy.
Please also make sure your address is correct before ordering as we will no be able to intervene and make changes before the book is shipped.
We can provide digital samples for all our print books ahead, so don't hesitate to reach out.

If you’re returning for another reason, however, please consider whether you could donate or gift the book instead so that it avoids the waste pile.
