The complete gun book, comprehensive and detailed, for all shooters - hunters, handgunners, collectors, handloaders, and law enforcement officers. John T. Amber was the Editor of the Gun Digest annual book from the 1951 through 1979 editions, and served as Editor Emeritus from the 1980 through 1986 editions. This edition celebrated John T. Amber's 25th anniversary as Editor. John T. Amber deserves a place of honor. In the early 1950s he took over Gun Digest and made it the publication of record for this business. Getting an article in Gun Digest was the sign that you had arrived. Amber was highly knowledgeable, a fine editor, and he had a nose for talent. He was also a gun enthusiast in the truest sense. If you ran into the average gun hobbyist at the NRA convention who'd seen something interesting, he'd tell you what it was and give you the booth number. Amber would clutch your arm in a death grip and drag you there. When he died, he left a barn attic literally filled with rare, and beautiful firearms. John T. Amber served as the longest-running editor of Gun Digest from 1951 to 1979. Since 1962, the publication has presented the annual John T. Amber Literary Award for outstanding gun writing of the year. Gun Digest Media is an American publisher specializing in firearms, shooting, ammunition reloading and concealed carry magazines and books. Its publications include Gun Digest Magazine and the Gun Digest Annual. The brand was founded in 1944 with the release of its annual book, making Gun Digest one of the oldest firearms-specific publishers in the nation. Gun Digest is a sister publication to RECOIL, RECOIL Offgrid, RECOIL Carnivore, and Blade Magazine. The brand was founded by Follett Publishing Co., a former book publisher in Chicago, which recognized a gap in the post-war firearms publishing market. The inaugural Gun Digest annual provided comprehensive information and reviews on firearms, establishing itself as a trusted resource for firearm enthusiasts. Gun Digest underwent significant transformations over the years. It was acquired by Krause Publications in 1994, leading to its relocation to Iola, Wisconsin. Krause Publications was later purchased by F.W. Media in 2002, and eventually, Caribou Media acquired Gun Digest in 2018. The publisher is now based in Appleton, Wisconsin.
