Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth study of the Krupp and De Bange gun construction systems, which dominated military ordnance in the late 19th century. The author, an expert in artillery, meticulously compares the two systems, examining their design, materials, and effectiveness. The book delves into the historical context of the development of artillery, highlighting the rise of steel as the preferred material for gun construction. The author explores the different methods of steel production, emphasizing the importance of purity and homogeneity in achieving the desired strength and reliability. The author presents detailed descriptions of the Krupp and De Bange systems, analyzing their respective merits and drawbacks. The Krupp system, with its reliance on crucible steel and meticulous attention to hooping and gas-checking, is contrasted with the De Bange system's innovative use of a plastic gas-check and modified Reffye breech mechanism. Beyond the technical comparisons, the book also touches on the broader strategic and military implications of the two systems. The author discusses the role of artillery in modern warfare and the ways in which the Krupp and De Bange systems influenced military tactics and doctrines. Overall, this book offers a comprehensive and authoritative examination of two pivotal artillery systems, providing valuable insights into the development and application of military technology in the late 19th century. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
