Germany from a military perspective 1881-1894

Collection: Military Tactics and the Rise of Modern Warfare, 1881-1935    Volumes    Germany from a military perspective 1881-1894
This file predominantly consists of correspondence from 1881 to 1894, the period preceding the Second Boer War, yet with a strangely prescient focus upon German politics and the German military. Concerns covered in these items do include volunteer recruitment and officer training; however, they also cover coverage of political affairs in Berlin, German military tactics under Moltke, literary activities (in German), correspondence from the diplomatic service on politics in European Capitals, and to Joseph Chamberlain on national defence.
