IN 1914 THE ARTILLERY OF BRITAIN'S 'FIELD ARMY' ENCOMPASSED THOSE
WEAPONS JUDGED TO HAVE SUFFICIENT MOBILITY TO KEEP UP WITH TROOPS IN
THE FIELD.
This book describes all major variants, from the 60-pdr guns of the
heavy field batteries, perched somewhat uncomfortably on the cusp
between field artillery and siege artillery, to the 2.75in. guns of
the mountain batteries, almost toy-like in comparison.
Between these two extremes lay the bulk of the artillery of the Field
Army: the 13-pdr guns of the Royal Horse Artillery, and the 18-pdr
guns and 4.5in. howitzers of the Royal Field Artillery batteries.
