Its scope extends across engagements at South Mountain, Harpers Ferry, Antietam, Shepherdstown, and Williamsport, as well as skirmishes involving Union and Confederate horse artillery during the advance into Maryland. An opening chapter introduces light artillery operations in the Civil War; six tables organize information on artillerymen, casualties, and armament.
