William J. Hardee's manual on Infantry tactics had to be replaced. In this case by the so-called "Casey Manual. As the US Civil War began to find traction and armies were being created, Hardee's manual needed to be replaced by the Union as Hardee chose to join the Confederacy. The Casey manual, similar to Hardee's became the new "bible" of sorts for the Union.
