This book was first published by MacMillan & Co Limited in 1938. This version is one of Naval & Military's splendid facsimile copies, this one in hardback format. The book is reproduced by kind permission of The Central Library, Royal Military Academy, Sandhurst.
The book is a combination of a discussion on the origins and development and tactical use in war of the machine gun, and a history of the Machine Gun Corps during its relatively short life.
This is a well written, and useful book by an officer who served in the war.
