"A pleasant surprise", January 28, 2008
This book is chuck-full of information; the opening chapters, particularly those pages dealing with Patterson rifle conversions are unique in my experience! Mr. Leavett has some fascinating pieces. The illustrations are of the highest quality; I was happy to see the coverage given to the engraved versions of the "second-generation" black-powder revolvers, having owned a few myself. This is right in there with the best $29.99 you can spend on a gun book.
"Great Dennis Adler Book", March 12, 2008
I must say I expected a good book following the purchase of Metallic Cartridge Conversions. What you get with Colt Single Action: From Patersons to Peacemakers is a superbly produced book covering this genre. Not only informative as you would expect, but written so well, not over technical just sheer good, interesting subject reading. Add the brilliance of Dennis Adler's photography and you have one of the best books on the market. |
