Buchbeschreibung (Hardcover, 2013). 2013 1st edition. Oblong 4to (286 x 262mm). Pp228. Colour photographs throughout. Laminated boards. Rather shelf-worn but very good in torn / rubbed dust-wrapper. A coffee table book illustrated with good, large, colour photographs throughout showcasing a selection of history's finest guns. "This photographic celebration of the art and artistry of firearms covers some 500 years of history, from the game-changing matchlock to the latest innovations in rifles, shotguns, handguns, and more. Any list of the 100 most influential guns is going to have some expected items such as the Winchester Model 1873, the S&W Model 41, and the AK-47. But how do you make a case for the Moisin-Nagant rifle? Authors David E. Petzal and Phil Bourjaily, Field & Stream's top gun writers, do just that in their informative and often highly opinionated commentary. This book features firearms from some of the top collections in America, presenting an unprecedented gallery of images. Additional sections cover technical specifications along with fascinating historical and cultural details." . Artikel-Nr. 38935
