A classic in small unit tactics in the British and U.S. Army, this book is recommended by the Commandant of the U.S. Army Infantry School "for the modern professional soldier." It is a thoroughly enjoyable read--witty, suspenseful AND instructive. The "hero" is Lieutenant Backsight Forethought (BF to his friends), who has been left in command of a 50-man reinforced platoon to hold Duffer’s Drift, the only ford on the Silliaasvogel River available to wheeled traffic. Here is his chance for fame and glory. He has passed his officer courses and special qualifications. “Now if they had given me a job,” says BF, “like fighting the Battle of Waterloo, or Gettysburg or Bull Run, I knew all about that, as I had crammed it up...” While BF’s task appears simple enough, the Boer enemy causes a multitude of problems, which he (and you as you follow his predicaments) needs to solve. BF eventually gets there, but not before he makes a series of tactical errors along the way. He learns, as does the reader, what errors to avoid in the future.

First published in 1907, The Defence of Duffer's Drift is a classic essay on small unit tactics based on author Ernest Dunlop Swinton's experiences in the Boer War in South Africa. In a series of dreams, Swinton's character Lieutenant Backsight Forethought works through a number of possible approaches to defending a piece of land known as the Drift. Each time, he makes fatal errors, but with each successive dream, Forethought corrects his previous mistakes and learns new lessons. The resulting work is an accessible, insightful look at small unit tactics and leadership that is as useful today as it was in the early 20th century. This edition also includes The Battle of Booby's Bluffs by Major Single List.

Following the invasion of Iraq in 2003 the U.S. military found itself in a battle with a lethal and adaptive insurgency, where the divisions between enemy and ally were ambiguous at best, and working with the local population was essential for day-to-day survival. From the lessons they learned during multiple tours of duty in Iraq, two American veterans have penned The Defense of Jisr al-Doreaa, an instructional parable of counterinsurgency that addresses the myriad of difficulties associated with war in the postmodern era. In this tactical primer based on the military classic The Defence of Duffer’s Drift, a young officer deployed for the first time in Iraq receives ground-level lessons about urban combat, communications technology, and high-powered weaponry in an environment where policy meets reality. Over the course of six dreams, the inexperienced soldier fights the same battle again and again, learning each time—the hard way—which false assumptions and misconceptions he needs to discard in order to help his men avoid being killed or captured. As the protagonist struggles with his missions and grapples with the consequences of his mistakes, he develops a keen understanding of counterinsurgency fundamentals and the potential pitfalls of working with the native population. Accompanied here by the original novella that inspired it, The Defense of Jisr al-Doreaa offers an invaluable resource for cadets and junior military leaders seeking to master counterinsurgency warfare—as well as general readers seeking a deeper understanding of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Just as its predecessor has been a hallmark of military instruction, The Defense of Jisr al-Doreaa will draw the road map for counterinsurgency in the postmodern world.

Walk with the legends as they recount their greatest game. No matter how good a player you are, the difficult game that is golf can often be summed up as a good walk spoiled. But for every duffer and hacker who has picked up the sticks, there is always one round that stands out from the rest. It's the game in which drives were straight and long, chips were soft and accurate, and putts always found the hole. This is why golfers endure the long walk; for the round they will never forget. Compiled by golf's best interviewer, Matt Adams, The Golf Round I'll Never Forget presents 50 such rounds from some of golf's best and brightest stars. Readers will march the final round at Cherry Hills with Arnold Palmer as he outlasts Ben Hogan and fends off Jack Nicklaus for a remarkable comeback victory that would stand as his only U.S. Open win. Similarly, readers will revel in the 46-year-old Nicklaus' come-from-behind victory at the 1986 Masters. And, of course, there is the Tiger Slam -- the unforgettable rounds that encompassed the never-before-achieved feat of winning all four majors in succession. Standing alongside these gems from history's three greatest golfers are other rounds that will never be forgotten: Billy Casper (1966 US Open) Sergio Garcia (2017 Masters) Zach Johnson (2007 Masters) Tom Kite (1992 US Open) Gary Player (1978 Masters) Gene Sarazen (1935 Masters) Craig Stadler (1982 Masters) Jordan Spieth (2017 Open) Tom Watson (1977 Open) and many more. Presented with photographs and scorecards for each round, Matt Adams' expert prose and the illuminating quotes he elicits from his subjects makes the The Golf Round I'll Never Forget the perfect book for every duffer and accomplished golfer.
