Internal Ballistics is a book written by James Atkinson Longridge in 1889. The book focuses on the study of the behavior of projectiles within a firearm, from the moment it is fired until it exits the barrel. The author delves deep into the mechanics of the firing process, including the ignition of the propellant, the pressure created within the barrel, and the movement of the projectile itself. The book is divided into several chapters, each covering a specific aspect of internal ballistics. The first chapter discusses the basic principles of internal ballistics, including the types of propellants and the factors that affect their burning rates. The following chapters cover topics such as the pressure generated within the barrel, the movement of the projectile, and the accuracy of the firearm. Throughout the book, Longridge provides detailed explanations of complex concepts, using diagrams and mathematical formulas to illustrate his points. He also includes numerous examples and case studies to demonstrate the practical applications of his theories. Internal Ballistics is considered a seminal work in the field of ballistics and is still widely referenced today. It is a must-read for anyone interested in firearms, ammunition, or the science of ballistics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
