Trooper's manual for Light Dragoons.

This is an admirable work, compiled by Col. J. Lucius Davis, the accomplished Cavalry officer, and just published by Mr. A. Morris, of this city:

‘ "Besides the Cavalry drill proper, it contains the regular drill of the United States Mounted Rifles, as authorized by a board of officers of the United States Army; the revolver manual of Capt. Bell, U. S. A., never before published in any book of tactics; the application of the regular drill to single rank formations; also, manual and directions for handling the breech leader, and other improved arms."
