This book is a translation of articles written in German by the Austro-Hungarian School of Musketry and appearing in a military journal the previous year. What the War Office translators call 'useful instruction' as employed by a potential enemy power - with whom Britain would find itself at war within three years - covers the handling and deployment of machine guns; the duties of a machine gun commander; concealment and other topics. Illustrated with many detailed maps and diagrams. An invaluable read.
