@BretDevereaux Thought for your copious free time, because obviously you lack for good ideas to write extensive series about... A 21st century reappraisal of Hans Delbruck. What remains important, what can be salvaged, what can be discarded...

Yeah but does he write 12000 word blog posts?
I mean, he effectively wrote a book reassessing Delbruk (inter alia). It's R. Konijnendijk, Classical Greek Tactics (2018). Expensive&somewhat tricky to get, but try your library to see if they can ILB. Alternately, very active on twitter and reddit.

I can't really go into my library because I have several books that have been overdue for 12 years, but thanks for the tip!

Tl;dr discard Delbrück, read the book that inspired him, it is much better and more interesting: Rüstow's "Geschichte der Infanterie" (1857)
