Excerpt from Root's Military Topography and Sketching: Prepared for Use in the United States Infantry and Cavalry School The compilation of the following pages was undertaken, in accordance with the School Regulations, with a view to bringing together in one volume so much of the subject of Topography and Sketching as may be useful to Military Officers in their varied duties, and to cover the subject as taught from a number of books, lectures, notes, etc., in the Department of Engineering at the U. S. Infantry and Cavalry School. The arrangement of the subjects (with slight modifications to adapt it to the time and instruments available at the school) is that recommended by the best authorities, as indicated in Chapter I., which is almost entirely made up of quotations from said authorities. It is also that which has been pursued in teaching the subject at the Infantry and Cavalry School for the past eight years. The subject matter is in certain parts almost a verbatim compilation from different standard authorities, no claim being 'made for originality, though the subject is one capable of great development.
