Battle of Booby's Bluffs

By Major Single List and Single List (Major.)

A a blunt depiction of incompetence by some American Army officers in World War I, who were unable to adapt their old-fashioned tactics to the new weapons of modern war - tanks, machine guns, stokes mortars, and airplanes. Written in the sequence-of-dreams style of the infantry classic, THE DEFENCE OF DUFFER'S DRIFT, the main character is a pompous know-it-all who relives the same dream over and over until by trial and error he learns how to keep his men alive and win the battle. Written under the pseudonym Major Single List, the anonymous author had good reason to hide his identity, given the number of feathers this amusing but highly critical book likely ruffled.
