 British Artillery Weapons & Ammunition 1914-1918 is the definitive account of British artillery from World War I. It meticulously catalogues all known types of artillery weapons that were in British service at the commencement of WWI and the new machinery that was created for the battlefield during the following four years. In addition, it lists the wide variety of coastal defense weapons and old nineteenth century veteran machines that were wheeled out of retirement in readiness for active service if necessary. The details of ammunition are also covered, including dimensions of cartridge cases and the different ammunition types for each artillery weapon listed.

Ian V. Hogg (1926-2002) served in the Royal Artillery of the British Army for twenty-seven years. Upon retiring in 1972, he held the appointment of Master Gunner at the Royal Military College of Science, where he taught on the subjects of firearms, artillery, and ammunition. Les Thurston grew up collecting shrapnel and shell casings during World War II. He has served on national service in Egypt and has provided his ammunitions expertise to the Imperial War Museums and the police.
