20169004305246Brill 2016. New/New. Author: Sanders MarblePublisher: BrillISBN: 9789004305243Release Date: 2016Languages: EnglishBinding: HardcoverNumber Of Pages: 396Details: In King of Battle: Artillery in World War I a distinguished array of authors examines the centrepiece of battle in the Great War: artillery. Going beyond the usual tables of calibres and ranges the contributors consider the organization and technology of artillery as well as present aspects of training doctrine and other national idiosyncrasies. Artillery dominated the battlefields of World War I and forever changed the military doctrine of war. No nation that had participated in significant ground combat would blithely assume that morale could ever replace firepower. The essays included in this volume explain how twelve countries including all the major combatants handled artillery and how it affected the Great War.Contributors include Filippo Cappellano Boyd Dastrup Edward J. Erickson Bruce Gudmundsson James Lyon Sanders Marble Janice E. McKenney Dmitre Minchev Andrey Pavlov Kaushik Roy Cornel and Ioan Scafes John Schindler and David Zabecki. Editorial Reviews Review ""The new book King of Battle: Artillery in World War I is an excellent international study of artillery during the war. Whether comparatively smaller cannons or mortars manned by infantrymen or huge railroad guns served by sailors these pieces made themselves known on the battlefield causing death and destruction and driving changes in fortifications and tactics. World War I artillery even â€œholds the dubious distinction of causing a new diagnosis shellshockâ€ p. vii. While acknowledging that scholars have written about artillery since the war editor Dr. Sanders Marble then states: â€œOverall there are only a few books examining artillery in World War I on a comparative international basisâ€ p. vii. Marble and his contributors seek to address the gap with this book."" Major Peter L. Belmonte Marine Corps History 3.1 2017. ""Bringing together some of the most renowned scholars from their respective national specializations King of Battle provides a skillful and important study of World War I artillery. Alongside trenches and machine guns artillery stands are at the core of the most evocative images of the conflict. As the most lethal category of weapons artillery in many theaters literally dominated the war. In view of the importance of the topic it perhaps seems surprising that more has not previously been done to encapsulate World War I artillery. The immensity of the topic helps explain the earlier absence. This work goes a long way toward filling a significant gap. . Each part of the book is excellent and the work as a whole is even more impressive than the sum of its parts. . In sum King of Battle packs a formidable punchâ€•in keeping with its subject.""
