"WAR is a science, and a difficult one. History is full of examples of the weak defeating the strong by superiority of knowledge in conducting troops. In drilling, we learn but the figures which troops may form; but we do not learn their application: therefore every officer should know the great principles of war, which will teach him how to approach the enemy, and, when in his presence, how to apply the figures of the drill."

Emil Schalk - Summary of the Art of War (1862) .
