Bush Warfare Book
Colonials
The Canadian Military offers a free pdf book called Bush Warfare, by General Sir William C.G. Heneker, KCB KCMG DSO. Its based on his colonial warfare experiences in the late 19th and the early 20th centuries. From wikipedia:
In 1907 Heneker published a book examining tactical innovation in small wars titled ‘Bush Warfare’. The first serious analysis of the characteristics of small wars since the 1896 publication of British Army Lieutenant Colonel Calwell’s Small Wars, Heneker’s own study became required reading and a resource for all commanders until new doctrinal publications appeared in the 1930s.[6] In 2007, Canadian military historian Andrew Godefroy edited a new edition of Bush Warfare in honour of the centenary of its original publication.
