Category : Fiction

Book Description
William Greener's book 'Gunnery in 1858: Being a Treatise on Rifles, Cannon, and Sporting Arms' offers a historical account of guns, rifles, cannon, and sporting arms from ancient times to the mid-19th century. Greener also stresses the importance of scientific principles in the development of weaponry, and warns of the urgent need for progress in the science of gunnery. He highlights the unfortunate reluctance of previous British governments to investigate and experiment with warlike inventions, and the danger of being unprepared in a time of war.

From Under Iron Eyelids
Author: Thomas K. Tate

ISBN: 1463476876

Languages : en
Pages : 520
Book Description
Contrary to popular belief the Minie ball was not used by either side during America’s Civil War. Instead infantry soldiers fired the Harpers Ferry bullet, a hollow based, cylindro-conical bullet designed by acting master armorer James Henry Burton. His reward was to be driven from his position by partisan politics and into the lap of Great Britain where he helped to establish the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield. Based heavily on Burton’s own papers, this book explains the problems and solutions to the armory production of small arms. A complete inventory of machine tools used to manufacture the Springfield rifled musket is listed in an appendix along with details and diagrams of three patents awarded to Burton.
