Beschreibung

Artillery instruments have been needed ever since the first cannon appeared on the battlefield. They aid the gunner in finding the elevation of the gun, upon which range depends, and the traverse angle, upon which lateral sighting depends. Visitors to many museums of scientific instruments will remember seeing gunner's levels, triangulation instruments, staffs and slide rules. This book describes the instruments issued to the artillery units and guns of the British Army at the start of the First World War. Instruments are illustrated with photographs or diagrams, and the use and method of working each instrument is clearly explained. Anyone interested in artillery will need this book so that a clear picture is available not just of the guns, but how they were aimed, and how surveys of targets were carried out. There are 51 plates and numerous diagrams within the text to clarify operation of these instruments.
