"Truly fine guns are as much works of art as poems, novels, or paintings," writes acclaimed outdoor writer Michael McIntosh in this classic book. And who better to guide us through the world of fine guns than McIntosh. Here, he captured the whole gun--the gun as a combination of form, fit, and function. Divided into two sections, the first on the art of guns and gunmaking, and the last on the art of shooting, this book is, as McIntosh himself says, "a celebration of the gun." Indeed, it's a celebration no lover of fine double guns should miss.

About the Author

"Although he certainly retained a deep interest in literature, and an even deeper one in history, his great love was shotguns and he wrote about them almost exclusively. And, to be blunt, no one in the latter part of the 20th century wrote about them so eloquently and with such passion." - Terry Wieland, Shotgun Life "Michael's brilliance with the English language - 'words' as he called them - ushered in the renaissance in fine guns. He could capture their appeal like no one else, and speak to our hopes and aspirations and to fine days afield with good friends and great dogs." - Vic Venters, Sporting Classics "McIntosh has the knack of describing scenes with a vibrancy usually reserved for the visual arts." - Bruce Buck, Shooting Sportsman
