In addition to the shorter Table of Contents at the beginning of the volume and the longer one at the end, there is a supplementary Table of Contents at page 53, partway through the France segment. The relationship between the Tables of Contents (all) and the printed book is casual at best; information may have been accurate for the first edition. Except in the case of apparent typographical error, discrepancies were left as printed. Indented paragraphs (2, 4 or more spaces) represent different sizes of text, or varying margins, in the original. In the section on Mathematics, superscripts are represented by ^ carets and braces {}: 2^{2}, x^{a+b}. Italics are shown conventionally with _ lines. Typographical errors are listed at the end of each numbered Part (I-X), with some general notes at the end of the full e-text.] Military Schools and COURSES OF INSTRUCTION in the SCIENCE AND ART OF WAR, in France, Prussia, Austria, Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, Sardinia, England, and the United States. Drawn from Recent Official Reports and Documents. by HENRY BARNARD, LL.D. REVISED EDITION. New York: Published By E. Steiger, 22 & 24 Frankfort Street. 1872. REVISED EDITION. The first edition of Military Schools in France and Prussia was issued in 1862, as a number of the American Journal of Education; and subsequently in the same year this portion was printed as Part I. of a comprehensive survey of the whole field of Instruction in the Science and Art of War in different countries. The circumstances under which the publication was begun, are set forth in the Preface to the imperfect edition of 1862. Now that the survey in the serial chapters of the Journal is as complete as the material at the command of the Editor, and the space which he can give to this special subject enable him to make it, the several chapters have been revised and brought together in a single volume, to present the actual condition of this important department of national education in the principal states of Europe, as well as in our own country.
