520 _a"Field Artillery Materiel" by James P. Kelly is a technical guide written in the early 20th century. The work serves as a comprehensive reference on the development, use, and maintenance of modern field artillery equipment, including various types of cannons and their accompanying systems. This book aims to provide readers with essential knowledge for effective engagement with artillery technology, likely targeted at military personnel and students in training. The opening of the text emphasizes the necessity for students of field artillery to have a strong foundational knowledge of various concepts and terminologies associated with firearms and artillery. Kelly discusses crucial definitions related to ammunition, artillery classifications, and the mechanics of projectiles, highlighting the importance of understanding these elements for effective operation and maintenance of artillery units. Additionally, it sets the stage for a detailed examination of artillery history, gun design, and modern armament in subsequent chapters. The aim is to equip artillery students with both theoretical and practical knowledge, ensuring they are well-prepared for real-world applications. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
