"THE SHOP."
_The Story of the Royal Military Academy._
BY
CAPTAIN F. G. GUGGISBERG, R.E.
_With 8 Coloured Plates and numerous Illustrations._
[Decoration]

Early Days (1741-1763).
The Period 1764-1806.
The Period 1806-1854.
A Period of Transition (1855-1864).

The "Shop" in the 'Nineties.
The G. C. of the Present Day.

[Decoration]
_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."
