Colour & b/w photographs, illustrations, decorative endpapers. Black cloth, spine titled in gilt. Slightly foxed and used but very good in faded dust-wrapper. "James Purdey & Sons Ltd. Gun & Rifle Makers of South Audley Street, London, is a truly remarkable firm.

Grace, Bing Crosby, and the great shots of the Edwardian era such as Lord Ripon and Lord Walsingham. The craftsmen are not forgotten, either, and there are detailed accounts of how the guns were (and still are) built, and of life in the factory. .This fascinating book, the result of the present Chairman's meticulous research into the firm's records, ledgers, letters and agreements, brings to life the colourful characters of the five generations of the Purdey family and follows the fortunes of the firm from 1814 to the present day." .…
