After the first volume on Italian cannons, in this second part we will treat and complete the study and analysis of the artillery pieces inherited from the First World War, both of national production and sources of war prey (typically Austro-Hungarian) following the victory in 1915-18. The criterion used will still be that of the growing calibre, i.e. from light pieces onwards. With the third volume, which will complete our work on Italian artillery from the first fifty years of the twentieth century, we will mainly deal with the more modern types of artillery, conceived from the second half of the 1930s. From this volume we will also expressly discuss the bombards in use in those years, while tractors will be distributed in various ways throughout the three volumes in preferably chronological order.

After the first two volumes on Italian artillery, devoted to the study and analysis of artillery pieces inherited from the First World War, both domestically produced and sources of wartime prey (typically Austro-Hungarian) following the victory in 1915-18; in this third and final part we will treat and complete our work on Italian artilleries of the first fifty years of the twentieth century, dealing mainly with the more modernly designed pieces conceived from the second half of the 1930s. The criterion used will still be that already used of the caliber to grow, so from light pieces onwards. At the end of the volume there will be the third part devoted to tractors and tractors, which in doing so will be distributed in various ways throughout the three volumes but always in chronological order.

This text provides an innovative global military history that joins three periods—World War I, the interwar years, and World War II. Jeremy Black offers a comprehensive survey of both wars, comparing continuities and differences. He traces the causes of each war and assesses land, sea, and air warfare as separate dimensions. He argues that the unprecedented nature of the two wars owed much to the demographic and industrial strength of the states involved and their ability and determination to mobilize vast resources. Yet the demands of the world wars also posed major difficulties, not simply in sustaining the struggle but also in conceiving of practical strategies and operational methods in the heat and competition of ever-evolving conflict. In this process, resources, skills, leadership, morale, and alliance cohesion all proved significant. In addition to his military focus, Black considers other key dimensions of the conflicts, especially political and social influences and impacts. He thoroughly integrates the interwar years, tracing the significant continuities between the two world wars. He emphasizes how essential American financial, industrial, agricultural, and energy resources were to the Allies—both before and after the United States entered each war. Bringing the two world wars to life, Black sheds light not only on both as individual conflicts but also on the interwoven relationships between the two.

As the First World War bogged down across Europe resulting in the establishment of trench systems, artillery began to grow in military importance. Never before had the use of artillery been so vital, and to this day the ferocity, duration and widespread use of artillery across the trenches of Europe has never been replicated. Featuring specially commissioned full-colour artwork, this groundbreaking study explains and illustrates the enormous advances in the use of artillery that took place between 1914 and 1918, the central part artillery played in World War I and how it was used throughout the war, with particular emphasis on the Western Front.

There have been many narratives of World War I and World War II; World in Conflict , however, is a chronology spanning the entire period of 41 years, complemented by more than 900 photographs and maps. It presents not only the events of the two world wars, but also of the interwar period, when there was fighting and political upheaval in many areas of the world, from Russia to Spain to China. The strictly chronological approach of World in Conflict allows the reader to comprehend the key battles on land, at sea, and in the air, on all fronts across the international arena. Major battles are presented in map form for ease of understanding. Strategic moves and political events across the globe are detailed day by day, month by month. Headings within each date entry enable the reader to trace the history of a particular theater of war or campaign throughout the narrative. Each year also includes separate information boxes on strategy and tactics, key personalities, key weapons, and key events. World in Conflict concludes with a bibliography, an A-Z of personalities, an A-Z of weapons, and an index.

Steel Wind is a piece of historical detective work that explains how Colonel Georg Bruchmuller, an obscure German artillery officer recalled from retirement, played a pivotal role in the revolution of offensive tactics that took place in 1917-18. Ironically, the methods developed by Bruchmuller ultimately were rejected by the German Army of World War II, but they were taken up and applied with a vengeance by the emerging Red Army. The Soviets further developed Bruchmuller's principles and incorporated them into their doctrine, where they remain to this day. Through Soviet doctrine, they have become fundamental to the practice of many other armies. Bruchmuller's influence in shaping the former Soviet Army has also been mirrored in the shape of those armies designed to oppose it.

'Ever your own, Johnnie, Sicily and Italy, 1943-45' is the concluding book of the 'Ever your own, Johnnie' trilogy. It describes, through his letters and diaries, the day-to-day life of R.S.M. John Kemp of the 76th Heavy Anti-Aircraft Regiment, Royal Artillery, from the time of his landing in Sicily, illness and hospital in Algiers, and the subsequent return to his Regiment in Italy. It tells of the conversion of the Regiment to a field artillery role on the Gothic Line, and of the conflict in the final push north to defeat of the Germans in Italy, followed by the long wait as an army of occupation before returning home on New Year's Eve 1945.
