The Definitive Book on the Subject Richly Illustrated with 115 Illustrations Clean, Sharp, Bright, Solidly-Bound, New Book Here is the first and most definitive book devoted solely to Confederate pistols and revolvers. The yet-to-be exceeded bible on the various manufacturers of small arms for the Confederacy. To date, this book remains the sole readily available source of information on a number of the more obscure Confederate revolver manufacturers. In addition to 115 Illustrations of Confederate handguns, this wonderful book documents the beginnings, evolution, and eventual demise of the various firms. It is the end-result of twenty-five years’ research, both at home and abroad, by the three most solidly qualified specialists on Confederate handguns. It represents a total of more than eighty-four years of research and collecting experience. It is not a “Civil War book” in the popular conception of the term. It is an analysis in depth of one phase of the Confederate war effort which has never before received due recognition: the manufacture of the South and the procurement abroad of the pistols and revolvers so vitally needed by their armed forces. With the nineteen chapters of this book, all phases of the subject are covered with a thoroughness that insures its place as the standard reference. Fact and theory are clearly labeled. Makers and methods are exhaustively examined. Fake specimens are described and the means for their detection given. Persons, places and products are presented in over one hundred and twenty superb and meaningful illustrations. Extensive footnotes and a pertinent bibliography further enhance its value. This is the book to which all who are interested in any phase of this field and its period must ultimately turn. THIS BOOK IS IN MINT CONDITION This is a brand new, unread, pristine condition book.
