SIGNED by Halton Henderson, J. Evetts Haley, David Holman, and Craig Jenson. Very fine in an equally nice slipcase. Laid-in is the publication announcement. The Chama Press, established in Dallas in 1989, was committed to fine, limited edition books on the Southwest. Artistry in Single Action, its first publication, tells the story of the Grizzly, the first single action revolver made in Texas after the Civil War and Edmond de la Garrigue, the eccentric genius who created it. In addition, to the step-by-step account of the Grizzly's design, manufacture, and trials, the book contains a wealth of information on earlier six guns made in Texas and Colt's post-World War II rivals, both large and small. An exceedingly handsome book, it received the runner-up award at the first Carl Hertzog Award for Excellence in Book Design. A valuable addition to collectors of fine bindings, firearms, J. Evetts Haley and historians. You may order with confidence as any item is returnable for any reason within ten days of receipt, provided it is in the same condition as when shipped.
