First editions. 2 Volumes. Cloth, 402pp., + 413pp. Profusely illus., primarily from old photos. The definitive study. This outstanding set presents a detailed chronology of the development and uses of firearms in the West, and the influence that they had on the history of the Western Frontier. A fine, bright set. Dust jacket to the first volume is very slightly sunned on spine, else fine, as is the second volume. Increasingly scarce, especially in this condition.
