THE SPECTATOR says:—

“A book which is both instructive and entertaining.... The story is relieved by various amusing anecdotes, and, more seriously, by notices of some distinguished foreigners who have made use of the Academy, the Prince Imperial being, perhaps, the best known.... Excellent illustrations.”

THE DAILY CHRONICLE says:—

“The writer of a military school history runs the risk of having to fill many pages with technical details of changes of organisation and regulations which have little interest for the average reader. Captain Guggisberg has avoided this pitfall. While the story of the gradual development of the college is duly set forth in his book, he gives greater prominence throughout to the social and human side of the life of ‘The Shop.’... It is written in a bright and interesting style throughout, and the author’s descriptions are helped by a series of illustrations, many of them in colours, which help us to realise the changes that more than a century has seen at Woolwich.”

VANITY FAIR says:—

“For such a book as this there are thousands of readers scattered over the world to welcome the record of the place where they first underwent the discipline of their profession. The author has spared no trouble to make his book interesting from all points of view.... Safe to prophesy success to this venture.”

THE ACADEMY says:—

“Those who wish to know how it (‘The Shop’) prospered in the 18th century, during the great war with France, and through the 19th century to our own day, must be referred to Captain Guggisberg’s fascinating pages, where they will find everything set out in full.... Valuable appendices deal with the officers, staff, and sport at ‘The Shop’; and in the roll of honour will be found some notable names. Many of the illustrations are in colour.... The majority are from photographs very well reproduced.”

THE ATHENÆUM says:—

“Captain Guggisberg traces the history with considerable minuteness.... Illustrations specially good and well chosen; indeed, author and publishers may both be congratulated.”

THE UNITED SERVICE GAZETTE says:—

“This admirable history of the Royal Military Academy will be very welcome.... Even the reader who has not the honour of belonging to either of the ordnance corps will find the book most interesting reading.... Finally, the illustrations alone would render the book very valuable.”

THE MORNING POST says:—

“The illustrations generally are excellent, the history has been compiled with judgment, and the book will be found attractive even outside the famous corps whose nursery it depicts.”

NAVY AND ARMY says:—

“A most entertaining and instructive account.... He tells the later story of the Academy in much detail and in a very interesting manner.... Illustrated by excellent photographs.... The coloured illustrations are very good, and the whole book is attractively got up.”

THE DAILY NEWS says:—

“A very readable history.... The Asmodeus who takes us behind the scenes of the Academy is an interesting guide, and by the time we have read his pages, which, by the way, are very well illustrated, we have got an excellent idea of the life of the Woolwich cadet.”

From “Proceedings of the R.A. Institution”:—

“The story of ‘The Shop’ has been admirably told in the smart little volume ... told clearly and succinctly. All important events are mentioned, yet none are over accentuated; and the book from start to finish is most readable and interesting.... Admirably got up. Paper, printing, illustrations, and binding are all as good as possible.”
