Gunnery, as a book category, covers the theory, practice, technology, and history of employing guns and artillery—primarily large-caliber weapons—across land, sea, and air. It includes classic manuals and modern references on ballistics, aiming and sighting, fire control, gunnery drills, safety, and maintenance, along with studies of naval, field, tank, coastal, anti-aircraft, and aerial gunnery. Many titles examine weapon and ammunition design, fuzes, trajectory computation, range tables, and targeting systems such as optics, radar, and fire-control computers, as well as historical case studies and after-action analyses of gunnery in combat. The category serves military professionals, historians, engineers, and enthusiasts seeking technical guidance, doctrine, or historical context, and may overlap with marksmanship literature where small-arms gunnery is addressed.
