"I am not a good commander, I admit. I'm incapable of thinking in terms of the whole, and I can't spare any thought for details. You know that. That's why I've given you the command of this expedition, and that's why I haven't yet told you what our goal is and how we'll get there." (Ch. 9)
The book is clearly written in a third-person limited omniscient point-of-view, which means the author knows what is going on in everyone's heads and is able to write from all perspectives (only the point-of-view of the main character changes throughout the story). The following quote is from Colonel Martin in Chapter 8, when he is about to leave the rendezvous with his men:
"It's probably my duty to tell you that I'm still in command here, and that you'll have to obey me. But if you did obey me, you'd all be dead by now.
