This is, without doubt, the finest book about the crucial role that artillery played in the two World Wars of the Twentieth century. The authors, both former artillery officers who saw action in Word War Two, describe the development of their neglected, inadequate and class-ridden arm through the battles of the First World War and the eventual war-winning role that artillery played, to the culmination of professional military deployment in the Second World War.

Under the effects of long range fire and strong air attacks, baggage and columns rushed eastward in headlong confusion the airmen worked over us like madmen the air activity was enormous.
Extract from a German monograph on the
battle of Amiens, 8 August 1918.
OH 1918, Vol. IV.
We thought that we were bettering ourselves by leaving Russia for sunny Italy. Little did we know how much more devastating was British than Russian fire. Sixty per cent of our casualties have been from your artillery shells.
A German prisoner on 1 November 1943
