About This Item
University Park, Illinois, U.S.A.: Osprey Pub Co, 2001. New book, 48 pages, NVG038, 8 pages of colour illustrations, 40+ B&W photos and illustrations. Perhaps the most influential arm of either army in the prosecution of the American Civil War, the artillery of both sides grew to be highly professional organizations, centralizing their artillery, organizing artillery battalions from individual batteries and giving their commanders higher ranks than field artillerymen had previously held. In battle, the introduction of the 12-pdr. Napoleon , followed closely by rifled cannon, provided a range and power previously unknown on American soil. This book details this vital cog in the war-machine of both sides. Contents: The pre-war Field Artillery, Design and development of Field Artillery, Operational history, The Plates, Bibliography.. Soft Cover. As New. Illus. by Bryan, Tony. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" Tall.
