Bruce I. Gudmundsson, On Artillery (1993), is a history of field artillery from the Franco-Prussian War of 1870–71 to the late 20th century. Though older, Ian V. Hogg, A History of Artillery (1974), a profusely illustrated history, provides considerable technical detail on the development of arms from the 12th century to the late 20th century. Jane’s Armour and Artillery (annual) lists all current artillery weapons, with descriptions, specifications, and illustrations.
