Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive guide to the construction and operation of rifle ranges. Written at a time when the United States was beginning to grapple with the need for national defense, the author emphasizes the importance of training and practice for marksmanship. The book delves into the technical aspects of range design, including the selection of suitable sites, laying out firing lines and pits, grading, drainage, and target construction. Detailed illustrations and plans are included to help readers understand the specifics of building various types of ranges. The book also explores the evolving nature of rifle technology and ammunition, highlighting the rapid progress made in the early 20th century. The authorââ â¢s passionate call for a strong national defense through the development of robust rifle ranges speaks to a broader cultural context of growing national anxieties and the evolving nature of warfare. This book provides invaluable insights into the practical and strategic considerations surrounding rifle range construction in the early 20th century, offering a fascinating glimpse into a period of intense technological innovation and national preparedness. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
