Terry Teachout, critique par excellence, has a neat audio file of WWI artillery. Interesting subpoint? The man who recorded the bombing did so that future generations would learn what war was. He thought that the coming armistice would prevent war from ever happening again, see?

That he little knows the future rarely prevents man from bold predictions.
