I am quite pleased to be able to offer you this military treatise, entitled "The Elements of Military Arrangement, and of the Discipline of War; Adapted to the Practice of the British Infantry". Written by John Williamson in 1781, this text provides us with a detailed view of the tactics, maneuvers and practices made use of during the period of the American Revolution, by the British Army.
A wonderful accompaniment to works such as those of Cuthbertson, this detailed document is a tool through which to understand the British Army both during this period and as an ever developing body of processes and development, seeing its operation here, at the most detailed level. I highly recommend this work for all military historians, reenactors and those with a keen interest in both British history and the American War of Independence.
