Mike,

You will find information about Lieut.-Colonel Hovell in the "Battalion Commanding Officers" section of this website. Then select either the 1st, 2nd or 13th Battalion and you will find a clickable link on his name. Here you will find full details of his life and army career. The direct link to this page is:

You will also see reference to 2 other books (manuals) he wrote, namely;
"Soldiers' Shooting" (London: Gale & Polden, 1888) and
"Soldiers' Training and Other Notes" (London: Gale & Polden, 1900)

Regards,

Louis
