Summary "History of the Royal Regiment of Artillery Vol. 2" by Francis Duncan is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book provides a detailed examination of the Royal Regiment of Artillery, focusing particularly on events from 1783 onwards, tracing its development and transformation within a military context. With thorough research based on original records, it aims to document the regiment's history, including notable campaigns and organizational changes over time. The opening of the volume presents setup information regarding the author and the work, followed by a preface explaining the need for the volume after unforeseen circumstances hindered the continuation of the initial narrative. Duncan articulates his appreciation of the support he received, references various contributors, and recounts the planned structure of the volume, which intends to expand upon the previous discussions. He begins with a focus on the period of relative peace following the American Revolutionary War, discussing the regimental dullness, personnel challenges, and organizational adjustments that characterized this era before moving towards the critical changes initiated by the growing tensions leading to the wars against France.
