Présentation de l'éditeur
Kitchener slife was strangely unlike that of the average British officer. No public school or cricket field, except for short periods no mess-room or garrison routine; no promotion examinations or Staff College. He was scarcely ever on parade and never attended manoeuvres until he became a General. His father, Colonel Kitchener, served in the I3th Light Dragoons, and for a short period before retiring had exchanged into the 9th Foot. He had a reputation for a very violent temper and some strong prejudices. The family consisted of four children (three sons and one daughter), of whom the third was Horatio Herbert, born in I reland, June 24, 1850. In accordance with one of the Colonel stheories none of the boys went to public schools. The system of private tutors means close individual attention and, from a purely academic point of view, may be the best means of working up knowledge. The pupil was brilliant at mathematics and mechanics; a couple of years in France and Switzerland added French and German. A short time with London crammers was sufficient to pass him into Woolwich A cademy, which he joined as a cadet in 1868.
