Excerpt from Interior Ballistics: A Text Book for the Use of Student Officers at the U. S. Artillery School
With the exception of portions of Chapters IV and V the author claims no originality. He has simply culled from various sources what seemed to him desirable in an elementary text-book, arranged it all systematically, from the same point of view, and with a uniform notation.
