An illustrated guide to the use of military vehicles on rail written by two noted experts in the field. The excellent color plates make up over half the book and are followed by a section with detailed descriptive notes. This volume covers the period up to 1918 and concentrates on the more unusual aspects -- the mortars on rails of the American Civil War, the Boer War Armored Trains, and the plethora of peculiar devices used on the light narrow gauge lines of World War I. 154 pages with index.
