DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Young Officer's Companion: Or, Essays on Military Duties and Qualities; With Examples and Illustrations From History, Edited, With Corrections and Additions It is not pretended in these pages to throw any fresh light upon history, or to add in the least degree to mili tary science; the object is merely to lead the young reader to the consideration of certain precepts of conduct and military principles likely to be useful, and to encourage him to the study of history by a selection of examples and anecdotes which appear to illustrate many of the chances and emergencies of a soldier's life. It is hoped that these illustrations, by giving him the taste for such reading, may lead him to trace out and follow up methodically in the pages of history the lives of eminent military characters, and the course of events which afforded those persons the occasion of displaying their courage, their judgment, and their devotion to the service of their country.

It had long since become matter of surprise that, while very high attainments were required from the youthful candidates for the Ordnance Corps, yet that some moderate, well-considered, and practical course of study, sufficient to prove that the Candidates had received the usual education of English gentlemen, had never been established for those who enter the service of Cavalry and Infantry. This, however, was to be accounted for in some degree by the general progress and improvement of education among the classes from which the great proportion of our young Officers have for many years been supplied; for the instruction acquired at our public schools had of late years become far superior to what it was at the close of the war; and it is remarkable, since the conclusion of that war, how many young men, before entering the army, have waited to take degrees at the Universities of Oxford or Cambridge.
