0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Book only has value up to 1870sBy Bruce E. MccallFrederick Robertson's book "The Evolution of Naval Armament" is a study of naval artillery from the 1500s to the 1870s. The book has 307 pages; a few dozen simple line drawings and an index. Its chapter titles include The Sailing Ship; The Smooth-bore Gun; The Steam Engine; New Principles of Gunnery; The Carronade; The Truck Carriage; The Shell Gun; The Rifled Gun; Propelling Machinery; and The Ironclad. This book was first printed in 1921; and I had hoped that he would give information about gunnery in the late 19th Century. This was not within scope of Robertson's study; thus I did not read the book.
