A
beautifully illustrated and highly regarded reference on the evolution of
British sporting guns and rifles during the golden age of gunmaking. Donald
Dallas chronicles the dramatic advancements from muzzleloaders to
breech-loading, centerfire, and hammerless firearms between 1850 and 1900,
featuring renowned makers such as Purdey, Holland & Holland, Boss, and
Westley Richards. Packed with hundreds of color and black-and-white
photographs, patent drawings, and historical research, this is an essential
reference for collectors, historians, and sporting arms enthusiasts. Like New condition.
