This is a review written by a retired colonel in 1884 of the artillery with 44 years of service. It is somewhat verbose and describes in political infighting and changes to the organisation of the artillery service. It would be a great basis for a PhD. There is some mention of the changes to manufacture in the use of wrought iron, cast iron, steel and bronze with particular refernce to the French use of broze and Kruppps manufacture of cannon. There are no illustrations. There is little technical information.
