To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Before this war began speculative writers had argued that infantry drillin close formation had now no fighting value whatever, that it was nodoubt extremely necessary for the handling, packing, forwarding anddistribution of men, but that the ideal infantry fighter was now ahighly individualised and self-reliant man put into a pit with a machinegun, and supported by a string of other men bringing him up supplies andready to assist him in any forward rush that might be necessary. The opening phas...es of the war seemed to contradict this. It did notat first suit the German game to fight on this most modern theory, and isolated individual action is uncongenial to the ordinary Germantemperament and opposed to the organised social tendencies of Germanlife. To this day the Germans attack only in close order; they areunable to produce a real modern infantry for aggressive purposes, and itis a matter of astonishment to military minds on the English side thatour hastily trained new armies should turn out to be just as good atthe new fighting as the most "seasoned troops.
