This book is a collection of eighteen reprints from U.S.Army manuals showing
the evolution of U.S.Army ambush tactical doctrine from 1920 to 1980. Ambush
will document from how U.S.Army in the 1920s hardly took any interest in ambush
tactics to when the complexity of ambush tactics hit their peak during the
Vietnam War and finally how it was simplified after that war.
