Synopsis

Shells And Shell Guns is a book written by John Adolphus Dahlgren and published in 1857. The book provides a detailed examination of the development and use of shells and shell guns in naval warfare. It covers topics such as the history of shell guns, the mechanics of shells, the design and construction of shell guns, and the tactics and strategy involved in their use. The author draws on his own experience as a naval officer and inventor of the Dahlgren gun, a type of shell gun used during the American Civil War.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
