This volume continues the theme of the development of the Royal Artillery during the run-up to the Great War, fifteen years compared with the forty of VoL I, fifteen years devoted to definite preparation in which the developments in Organization, Armament and Training discussed in Vol I were co-ordinated to a common aim. On the other hand the breach between branches was widened by the separation between mounted and dismounted, and the general trend towards spacialization. So, in this volume a different method has been adopted in which the developments of each branch are recorded separately in three parts - The Field Army Artillery, The Siege Artillery and the Coast Artillery. Part V has a couple of chapters on the Auxiliary Artillery which included the Militia, Volunteers, the Special Reserve and the Territorial Force. The final Part VI deals with Regimental Institutions such as the Remount Department, the Riding Establishment, the RA Institution, the Artillery College, Gunnery courses, the RMA, the RA Mess and the Bands. One of the appendices provides a chart showing the distribution of units as on 1 Aug 1914. There is a very comprehensive index

In the first two volumes of this history nothing was said of active service, although the Army was engaged in numerous wars in which the artillery played its part. The reason for this omission was that none of these campaigns, with the possible exception of S Africa, affected its development to a degree at all comparable with the influence exerted by the European wars of the period, or by the advance of science, as described in Volume II. Thus in the planning stage of this history, it was decided to treat the campaigns separately and this volume is the result. It is primarily concerned with those campaigns which have marked some real epoch in the life of the Regiment, or exerted some distinct influence on its development. During the period covered the artillerymen faced all sorts of weapons: slings, arrows, jezails, muskets, match-locks and spears but rarely did they have to face bursting shell. The wars in which the enemy also had recourse to artillery were to be studied with care, and in considering these the action of the artillery will be described in detail, with such comments that are called for to bring out the lessons to be learned. The object has been to concentrate on the role of the artillery without any discussions of political or or military factors that may have led to the outbreak of hostilities. The wars covered are shown by theatres: India, China, New Zealand and Canada, North & East Africa, West and South Africa and the South African War.. with the latter are a number of appendices giving such details as Units engaged and total strength; guns used; ammunition expended; distribution of units, 1901; command and staff appointments and medals and clasps.

Historians still debate the causes of the Indian Mutiny. This history, drawn from a formidible array of sources, should add ammunition to the controversy. It covers the whole history of the force that rebelled in 1857 - the Bengal Army- from the raising of the first prototype units by the East India Company in the 17th century, down to the height of the British Raj in the 1890s, and includes many half forgotten campaigns and actions. It was compiled as a continuous narrative by a serving officer in the Indian Army, Lieut. F. G. Cardew, before being revised and edited in the Military department of the Government of India by Mr. G. W. de Rhe-Phlipe. The book is particularly valuable as a source for the Bengal Artillery. Provides much valuable background information on the organization of and disaffection in the Bengal Army. Includes an index, a glossary of Indian terms and words, and a Chronology of Indian army corps.

The advent of the cannon many centuries ago added a new dimension to warfare, and soon became the weapon of choice of the Kings and Emperors. Since then artillery has evolved into a battle-winning factor, often being the determinant between success and failure. This book covers five great artillery battles fought in four continents over 136 years. The Battle of Gettysburg (1 to 3 Jun 1863) is the most 'written about' battle of the US Civil War. The Battle of Vimy Ridge (9 to 12 April 1917), which saw the Canadian Corps fight as one entity for the first time, commenced with the greatest artillery barrage in history (till then) - 983 guns! In the Battle of Bir Hacheim (Point 171) (27 May 1942) 2 Indian Field Regiment firing over 'open sights' knocked out 56 tanks of the German Afrika Korps, led by General (later Field Marshal) Erwin Rommel. The Battle of Chhamb (3 to 17 December 1971) recounts what was perhaps the toughest and most intensely fought battle of the Indo-Pakistan War. The Battles of Tololing and Tiger Hill fought during the Kargil Conflict in the summer of 1999 saw the Indian guns engaging targets at heights of 16000 feet!
