The use of artillery in the high mountains placed special demands on the equipment, especially in earlier times, because it not only had to withstand inhospitable weather, but also had to be able to be transported and operated in the most impassable terrain at often dizzying heights - and that without the advanced technical aids of the present day. Supported by around 200 historical illustrations, Franz Kosar describes in detail in this volume which solutions were found for this worldwide from the 19th century until the end of the Second World War: in Europe, Africa, Asia as well as in North and South America.
