Sommario/riassunto |
|
This book is a very important text for any student of the development of the machine gun, and contains details of the history of this weapon from its inception to the mid-point of the First World War. The evolution of the machine gun is detailed, followed by examples of the use of the weapon in war, and particularly in the Russo-Japanese War. Tactics are examined in detail, both from the historical point of view and tactics of the First World War, an important part of the book. |
