Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth study of the Krupp and De Bange gun construction systems, which dominated military ordnance in the late 19th century. The author, an expert in artillery, meticulously compares the two systems, examining their design, materials, and effectiveness.
