Wraps. Zustand: Good. Ninth Printing. 72 pages. Wraps. Illustrations. Bibliography. Name of previous owner, ink notation on title page. An excellent introduction to the types of weapons, ammunition, and equipment, and the way they were employed during the American Civil War. Numerous historic photographs. Dean S. Thomas, one of…the foremost authorities on Civil War small arms ammunition, first visited Gettysburg in 1960. His interest in the Civil War and the collection of Civil War artifacts began with the start of the Centennial celebration in 1961 when he visited Gettysburg againâ"and found his first bullet. A graduate of Haddon Township High School in Westmont, New Jersey in 1966, Thomas attended Gettysburg College, then graduated from Glassboro State College in Glassboro, New Jersey in 1972 with a B.A. in history. During this time he spent five-summer seasons as a Licensed Battlefield Guide at the Gettysburg National Military Park. He founded Thomas Publications in 1981 with the authorship of Ready.Aim.Fire!, followed not long after by Cannons and Civil War Commanders. Round Ball to Rimfire is the result of a lifelong interest in, and study of, Civil War small arms ammunition, and has grown to a four volume set. His latest work, Confederate Arsenals, Laboratories, and Ordnance Depots, three volumes, was published in 2014. During the period, 1994 to 2014, Thomas steadfastly encouraged Prichard and Huey in their work on The English Connection and contributed substantially to the small arms ammunition chapter. He and his brother, Jim, provided the index, final editing and published this book. The concise guide to the weapons, ammunition and equipment of Civil War artillery. More than 150 photos and drawings. Field artillery in the American Civil War refers to the artillery weapons, equipment, and practices used by the Artillery branch to support the infantry and cavalry forces in the field. It does not include siege artillery, use of artillery in fixed fortifications, or coastal or naval artillery. Nor does it include smaller, specialized artillery classified as small arms. The Union Army entered the war with a strong advantage in artillery. It had ample manufacturing capacity in Northern factories, and it had a well-trained and professional officer corps manning that branch of the service. Brig. Gen. Henry J. Hunt, who was the chief of artillery for the Army of the Potomac for part of the war, was well recognized as a most efficient organizer of artillery forces, and he had few peers in the practice of the sciences of gunnery and logistics. Another example was John Gibbon, the author of the influential Artillerist's Manual published in 1863. Shortly after the outbreak of war, Brig. Gen. James Wolfe Ripley, Chief of Ordnance, ordered the conversion of old smoothbores into rifled cannon and the manufacture of Parrott guns. The twelve-pound cannon "Napoleon" was the most popular smoothbore cannon used during the war. It was named after Napoleon III of France and was widely admired because of its safety, reliability, and killing power, especially at close range. In Union Ordnance manuals it was referred to as the "light 12-pounder gun" to distinguish it from the heavier and longer 12 pounder gun (which was virtually unused in field service.) It did not reach America until 1857. It was the last cast bronze gun used by an American army. The Federal version of the Napoleon can be recognized by the flared front end of the barrel, called the muzzle-swell. It was, however, relatively heavy compared to other artillery pieces and difficult to move across rough terrain. Smoothbore guns were designed to fire solid shot projectiles at high velocity, over low trajectories at targets in the open, although shell and canister were acceptable for use. The barrels of the guns were longer than corresponding howitzers, and called for higher powder charges to achieve the desired performance. Field guns were produced in 6-pounder (3.67 inch bore), 9-pounder (4.2 inch bore), and 12-poun.
