Aggiungi al carrelloCondizione: New. SB 142pp.+ 8pp supplemant 6 plates (in colour) tables, line drawings, 2004 N&MP Reprint of 1823 Original EditionPublished Price £16 Ezekial Baker was the inventor of the Baker rifle, and had 60 years of gun making to his credit, as well as the fact that is rifle was issued to the British Army. Baker writes about the early history of rifling, percussion locks, and casting lead balls for muskets and rifles. He also advises the reader on how to aim and use his rifle, as well as looking at fowling pieces (shot guns in modern parlance) and blunderbusses. The book is not just a self-encomium however, as he looks at the history of the early rifle, a subject of considerable importance to all military historians as well as firearms historians. There is also a description of the early method of proofing barrels, and how to burst a blunderbuss.The construction of firearms is described, with some valuable comments on stocking weapons and on the percussion lock, the important transitional firing method between flintlock and the firing pin.The appendices include a handy aide-memoire of shot to the ounce and a table of the weights and diameters of lead ball.

Aggiungi al carrelloHalf Leather. Condizione: Fair. No Jacket. Tenth Edition. The apparently original binding has marbled paper on boards, with black leather to spine and outer corners of boards. The paper on the covers is heavily rubbed, as are the leather corner sections, with much loss to the leather and subsequent 'show through'. The front board is loose but still attached.The spine is decorated with gilt lettering and lines, with losses to the head and tail. The book would benefit from a re-bind. Internally, the book appears to be lacking a front end page, starting with a text page, in a different type setting to the main book and thicker paper, referring to 'further and important improvements in the Lock of the Gun'. This page is loosely sewn in and is practically detached from the main book. The main title page has a hand coloured frontis of 'Rifleman Presenting'. Traces of this illustration have transferred to the title page. The next page shows a hand coloured royal coat of arms surmounting reproductions of three six inch targets (not to scale) said to have been shot at by the then Prince of Wales, later King George Fourth in 1805., followed by a printed dedication to King George IV. Opposite page 188 a single unpaginated page entitled 'Stocking of Guns' has been inserted, together with a tipped-in hand coloured diagram showing how the rifle/gun should be aligned to prevent under shooting. At the rear of the book are five further hand coloured illustrations, three showing 'Rifleman Presenting' positions and two illustrating likely 'hits' on a human form from 24 and 34 yards, using the Baker Rifle. Also at the rear are seven pages of diagrams and recorded data of tests of Baker's rifles. A remarkable volume highlighting the production of the Baker Rifle, brought to modern fame by way of Bernard Cornwell's series of Sharpe novels. 251 pages plus plates and data pages.
