Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Modern Artillery, Including Artillery Material, Gunnery and Organization and Use of Artillery in Warfare The attempt has been made, it is hoped with success, to lay a solid foundation in each branch, and to provide, by ample references to the best books, the means of pursuing either of them by further study. Whenever possible, mere Opinions have been avoided, as unsuitable to a work dealing chiefly with the results of practice and the principles to be derived from them. Part I. Gives a general description of the construction and objects of the different guns, carriages, and kinds of ammunition now used, without which the subsequent parts would be but imperfectly understood. To simplify the subject, naval stores and small arms have been omitted, occasional reference being however made to the former in the foot-notes; for the same reason, most of the large tables have been placed in the Appendix. In Part II. Long mathematical investigations have been avoided, but references have been given to where they may be found; and the methods of calculating practical gunnery questions have been fully explained. Part III. Treats of a subject too little studied in this country, but which is of great importance, and commands apparently at the present time a growing interest.
