This volume in the popular G.I. series illustrates a much-neglected
aspect of American military history - the U.S. Army artillerymen,
named redlegs after the red stripes on their trousers. The
photographs, most of them rarely seen in other sources, range from
the Civil War and the campaigns against the American Indians
through to the Spanish-American War. Artillery was a vital arm and
proved its worth in all of these diverse theatres of war;
artillerymen served as part of mobile columns, in sieges and
blockades, and as garrisons in remote frontier forts. This handy
guide includes superb images and descriptive captions detailing the
appearance of the men, their uniforms and equipment, and the
ordnance used over the years.
