Book published this month and currently listed at the address below. In four to six weeks, it should be available from Barnes and Noble and[url] Amazon.com[/url]. Some of the content will be familiar to members of this board as will some of the black and white pictures.
It is a non-industry-driven incapsulation of the era of percussion handguns attempting to put the arms in the proper historical context, provide useful information about shooting them and keeping them in working order. We've listed loads and tried to include enough data so that the reader can come to his own conclusions about how the original pistols and revolvers might have performed.
The pictures basic black and white and work pretty well but some of them came out a little smaller than I had anticipated. This is not a problem with the pictures that serve as diagrams but notations on a few of them may require bright sunlight magnification or a young set of eyes. I mention this because it may be a major cause of irritation to some potential buyers who should avoid buying the book.
