"The Making of a Modern Army and its Operations in the Field" by René Radiguet is a military study written in the early 20th century. The work focuses on the composition and operations of the French army during World War I, particularly between 1914 and 1917. The book aims to educate American military officers and civilians about the aspects of warfare learned through extensive experience on the European front. The opening of the book sets the stage for this exploration by outlining its purpose and the structure that will guide readers through various military topics. Radiguet discusses the strategic lessons learned over three years of combat, emphasizing the importance of organization within the army, the roles of different units, and the significance of coordination in tactics and logistics. He notes key aspects such as aviation's evolving role in warfare, the composition of divisions, and artillery strategies, all of which will be elaborated upon in subsequent chapters. The beginning clearly establishes the author's intent to offer practical insights into the functioning of a modern military, drawing parallels that would be relevant to the developing American forces.
