{"product_id":"artillery-of-world-war-ii","title":"Artillery of World War II","description":"\u003cp\u003eArtillery of World War II is a compact, weapon‑centred survey of the guns that dominated battlefields in Europe and the Pacific from 1939–1945. Focusing on both field and self‑propelled artillery, the book profiles famous pieces such as the British 25‑pounder, the German Pak 38 and the iconic “88,” alongside the 76mm Model 1920 and 155 mm howitzer, while also bringing attention to lesser‑known Italian, French and Japanese systems. Rather than a campaign narrative, the volume places these weapons in their historical and operational context, tracing technological trends, battlefield roles and comparative capabilities across belligerents and theaters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book pairs clear technical prose with photographs and a full specifications table for each piece, making it a practical illustrated reference for historians, modelers and collectors. Authored by Chris Chant—an established writer of military reference works—and published by MBI\/Zenith Press (ISBN 9780760311721), this title functions as both an identification guide and a concise technical history of World War II artillery. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WW2 Bunker","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44298902765670,"sku":"9780760311721","price":26.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/4926\/4998\/files\/OD7ybXC54aawjhX3iDNuWQVqD2W1Dco6WdlwmoME24.jpg?v=1767232112","url":"https:\/\/ww2bunker.com\/products\/artillery-of-world-war-ii","provider":"WW2 Bunker","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
