First edition. *'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 endeavor 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' [Preface].
