About This Item
New York: Bonanza Books, 1978. Bonanza printing. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. xxiii, [1], 711, [1] pages. Foreword by Stephen V. Grancsay. Introduction by Stephen W. Dimick. Illustrations. Glossary. Index. Some edge soiling. This history of the Colt Revolver contains numerous illustrations. Part One gives the history in 18 chapters; Part Two gives an outline of antique and obsolete models; Part Three includes documents contemporaneous to the manufacture of the Colt; Part Four includes facsimiles of many of the patents. The authors of this volume have filled a serious gap in the literature of firearms, for in that study there are few types, if any, which arouse more interest that the Colt revolver. A glance at the table of Contents and at the illustrations and facsimiles of documents show the comprehsenisve scope of the book, Its principal value is that it presents facts and not theories.
