Military Law and the Procedure of Courts-martialJ. Wiley & sons, 1907 - 650 páginas "This book has been prepared to meet the existing necessity at the United States Military Academy for a text-book which would give a clear and thorough outline of the science of military law, including all recent changes and developments, and yet be contained within such brief compass as to be adapted for use in the instruction of Cadets within the limited period assigned to the study of the subject. The work also aims to deal with the general procedure of courts-martial and to set forth that procedure and existing military laws in such a manner as to make a text of practical use to the service at large"--Preface |
