Quick Training for War
Book 23 of 111: General MilitaryLanguage: English
Published by Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, GB, 2018
ISBN 10: 1472837940 ISBN 13: 9781472837943
Hardback. Condition: New. In this fascinating little book, Robert Baden-Powell uses his extensive military experience and memories of service in Africa to distill soldiering down to 'the four C-s': Courage, Common sense, Cunning and Cheerfulness.With observations gleaned from his campaigns against the Zulus, the Ashanti and the Boers during the period 1876-1910 (and even from conversations with the German Kaiser), B-P discusses all aspects of military service from digging trenches and earth-works to 'inculcating cheerfulness in your men'. This period document gives a unique insight into the mindset of the British officer in 1914; advocating a training system that encapsulated Edwardian values, conventional military thinking and centuries of army tradition.Quick Training For War is a perfect example of the type of war the British expected to fight and which they prepared for in 1914, and it became a standard survival guide for many British troops. Personable in tone, this is the well-intentioned, no-nonsense advice of a seasoned campaigner - albeit an officer more accustomed to scouting on the South African veldt than struggling through Somme mud.

This authentic 1914 training manual by Robert Baden-Powell, who later founded the modern scouting movement, draws heavily on his experiences as a British officer from 1876-1910. Advocating a training system based on Edwardian moral values, Baden-Powell emphasizes the the four Cs : Courage, Common sense, Cunning, and Cheerfulness--qualities that would prove of little value in the conflagration about to engulf Europe. Full of engaging anecdotes and poignant glimpses of a bygone age, Quick Training for War offers modern readers a unique insight into the mindset of the British officer class at the outset of World War I.

Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, penned at the cusp of a global conflict, delves into the art of forging effective soldiers, emphasizing the essence of rapid training during times of crisis. The author draws upon their extensive experience in the South African campaign, where raw recruits were transformed into battle-ready soldiers in a matter of weeks. The narrative transcends mere drills and formations, exploring the core principles that underpin military success. Courage, common sense, cunning, and cheerfulness are identified as the four cornerstones of soldiership. The author delves into practical ways to cultivate these qualities, emphasizing marksmanship, horsemanship, and fostering trust between soldiers and their leaders. The book challenges conventional notions of discipline, advocating for an approach rooted in understanding and shared purpose rather than rigid obedience. Real-world examples from historical battles, including the Boer War and the siege of Mafeking, illustrate the effectiveness of unconventional tactics and the importance of adaptability on the battlefield. Ultimately, this book underscores the significance of human spirit and ingenuity in the face of adversity, offering timeless insights that remain relevant to modern-day leadership and conflict resolution. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
