From the bronze Dahlgren muzzleloading smoothbore howitzer deployed extensively during and after the Civil War; to the final 3-inch naval landing gun, the Mark XI, which likely saw use in the Philippines during 1942; chronicles the history and characteristics of every model of US Navy landing gun in service between 1850 and 1942. It is an account of a largely forgotten but fascinating part of US naval ordnance development, evolved in the exciting context of interdepartmental wrangling, coercive diplomacy, swashbuckling military adventure, and actual combat.
