This book is a comprehensive guide for military professionals planning battlefield tours. Drawing on first-hand experience leading tours, Haking details the benefits of 'staff rides, ' which involve a group of officers visiting a historical battlefield and conducting in-depth analysis, discussion, and decision-making exercises related to that location's military history. Haking also provides practical advice on how to plan and execute regimental tours, which are designed to foster morale and esprit de corps within a specific military unit.
