This work discusses the Prussian activities during an invasion of Moravia with regards to housing its soldiers in the homes of civilians.  It is a wonderful example of why when the US Constitution was drawn up the 3rd Amendment prohibited the lodging of soldiers in the homes of civilians.  It also includes a funny story about an Austrian spy.
