The Mechanical Fuze and the Advance of Artillery in the Civil War
McCaul, Edward B., Jr, Jr.
The rifled artillery used during the Civil War created the need for a new and more reliable type of artillery fuze to light powder charges. This title explains how mechanically ignited fuzes were developed to improve accuracy, distance, and power of weaponry, as well as the technical and manufacturing challenges of mating gunpowder and metal.
