The volume closes a gap in the history of mountain artillery and describes above all the operations of the mountain artillery regiments 79 (1st Mountain Division), 111 (2nd Mountain Division), 112 (3rd Mountain Division), 94 (4th Mountain Division), 95 (4th Mountain Division), 95 (3rd Mountain Division) and 94 (4th Mountain Division).
