Marco has put together an excellent new web site on Bulgarian Artillery from 1878-1918. This has quite a lot of great information especially considering that Bulgaria used many weapons from foreign nations. The up shot is that if you are interested in German, Austro-Hungarian, Serbian, Ottoman or French Artillery you will find interesting information on his site: http://www.bulgarianartillery.it/

Out of interest, I have a Bulgarian friend at school, who tells me that his great-grandfather might've been in artillery in WWI, from asking his grandpa, who was a tank crewman in WWII.
To support Ralph's alert to this website, I thought a couple pics of Bulgar artillerie would be appropriate. The second photo may be captured Serbian ordnance; judging from the damage to the barracks in the background.
