The development of British artillery on the Western Front
Dr Breer will discuss the evolutions and revolutions in design and technology of artillery from the late 19th century to the end of the First World War.
He will explore why the British Army came into battle with the ordnance it did. He will also highlight how the manufacturing base in the UK both allowed, and limited, the designs eventually fielded in battle.
