Excerpt from The Army and the Law This book deals with the army only in its relation to the common law which governs the general public, and with the soldier only in so far as his activities are, in point of law, of interest to non-military persons. It is an en deavor simply to assemble the principles of law which impose duties upon the civilian, citizen, or enemy, quite as much as they give him rights which the army must observe. Hence I do not treat Of the rules governing the internal affairs of the army except in so far as they bear on its rights and Obligations with respect to people who are not members of its personnel. For the same reason, I have avoided men tion of the laws of war, and matters of strict international law, beyond such passing reference as might be necessary to indicate the boundaries of the jurisdiction of common law courts. Jurisdiction, as the Supreme Court has said, means simply the power to decide a case; 1 and many con troversies are possible with respect to the army which common law courts cannot decide. All such matters I have endeavored to classify as non-justiceable, and to say no more about them than might be necessary for purposes Of classification. Such is my appointed path, and for all deviations from it my apologies are tendered in advance. My thanks are due to all those who took a kindly interest in this work during its progress, including my partners and Dean Stone of Columbia Law School. My brother-in-law, Colonel S. J. B. Schindel, U. S. A., and my partner, Mr. C. R. Canter, were also kind enough to read the advance proofs and make valuable suggestions thereon.

Excerpt from Military Law and Precedents In view of the absence and want of a comprehensive treatise on the science of Military Law, it has been for some years the purpose of the author a member of the bar in the practice of his profession when, in April, 1861, he entered the military service - to attempt to supply such want with a Work, which, by reason of its extended plan and full presentation of principles and precedents, should constitute, not merely a text book for the army, but a law book adapted to the use of lawyers and judges. The present treatise was substantially completed in 1880, when the author was called upon to publish his annotated Digest of Opinions of the Judge Advocates General, and some of the references embraced in the original work were inserted in the notes of that publication. Since its date certain unusually important military trials and investigations have been had, sundry valuable opinions upon questions of military law have been pronounced by the courts and other legal authorities, and our written military law - especially the Army Regulations - has been materially modified. Meanwhile also, in England, the time-honored Mutiny Act and Articles of War have wholly passed away and been succeeded by the new Army Act and Rules of Procedure, - a reform of great interest to the military student, - and this legislation, &c., has been copiously illustrated by the excellent official Manual of Military Law and a series of minor com mentarles. In view of these changes, the present work has been revised, and in great part re-written, and the references have been brought down to the end of the year 1885. Apart from the views and conclusions of the author, the precedents, now first collected and considered, will, it is believed, be found to be valuable both as law and history. A complete history, for example, of the late war could scarcely be written without taking into consideration the more important trials and acts of military government of that period instanced in the course of these volumes.

Excerpt from Handbook of Military Law One of the courses which is required of all members of the Students' Army Training Corps in the colleges of the United States is a course on Military Law and Practice. This course includes three subjects: military law, international military customs, and army administration. Military law includes chiefly the procedure of courts-martial. The law relating to courts-martial is very fully expounded in the Manual for Courts-Martial. It is impossible for the present to obtain a sufficient number of copies of the Manual to supply all the members of the Students' Army Training Corps. Moreover the detail with which the subject is treated in the Manual makes the Manual less useful than it would otherwise be as a textbook for a three months' course for undergraduates. On the other hand Colonel Wambaugh's excellent little Guide to the Articles of War, in which the Articles of War are printed without any accompanying comment, does not afford the student enough material as a basis for study in a course of this length. The author, therefore, in arranging the course on military law in Harvard University has found it necessary to supply a brief textbook for the use of the members of his classes.

Excerpt from An Abridgment of Military Law This volume is an Abridgment of the Treatise on Military Law, in two volumes, published by the author in 1886. In arranging the present work, all the notes (except a few references), together with the discussions of doubtful questions, the opinions of the author on mooted points, and most of the historical detail, have been omitted, and the original text has been otherwise very materially condensed. The Abridgment, first pub lished in 1887 and now revised, has been prepared with a Special view to the instruction of the Cadets of the United States Military Academy, and was adopted by the Secretary of War, February 14, 1887, as the text-book on military law in the law course of that institution.

Excerpt from Cases on Military Law, 1909-10 The object of this little book is to place before the officers of the Army the leading cases on military law in a simple and convenient form. A study of the leading cases is an essential part of the study of any branch of the law, and especially so of military law. Officers generally do not have access to the reports of the Supreme Court and other federal courts, and are thus handicapped in their study. These cases, prepared by practical military men, give a simple statement of the facts out of which the case arose, the points of law involved, and the decisions of the court. If analogous situations arise in the future, a careful study of these cases should enable officers to reach a proper decision. It is intended to have future staff classes supple ment and complete this work. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
