Goodwin. Though conceived in the 19th century, railway guns — whose usefulness was largely ignored for half a century — became important strategic tools for both the British and Germans during the Great War. Lavishly illustrated with maps, drawings, and photographs, this historical examination of train weapons explores their prominence in World War I, postwar dismantling, and World War II reemergence. Get details on the types of guns, locomotives, targets, locations, and realities of firing these behemoths. 128 pages, 80 images, 7"x 10", hardcover.
