The Art of Prowling

By G a Wade

Book Overview

The Art of Prowling is one of a series of training booklets written by Colonel G. A. Wade for the newly-recruited Home Guard. This reprint shows how trainees during the Second World War learned to sneak up on the enemy without being seen. 'It is extraordinary how reluctant the British soldier is to show cunning. We try to play the game of war as if it had rules for fair play like cricket and football.' 'If you want to make your spell of duty pass quickly, concentrate on prowling properly.' Colonel G. A. Wade was a British soldier and author who wrote a series of training manuals for the British Home Guard in the expectation of a German invasion. The series was originally published by Gale & Polden.
