Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Drawn from some of the world's most prestigious collections, this comprehensive work is a visual and historical reference exploring the craftsmanship and technical progress of German pistol development from 1871 to 1914. Using specially commissioned colour photography, these ultra-rare and priceless side arms, many of which are shown for the first time, are portrayed in stunning detail, highlighting the engravers' art, intricate designs, and ornamentation. Important weapons from Luger, Walther, Mauser, and many others belonging to aristocracy and heads of state have been selected to provide the reader with an appreciation of the gunsmith's artisanship. Rare prototypes illustrate key technical innovations, many of which remain prominent features in modern firearms today. Finally, rare pistols used for military trials are also included, marking the evolution of the pistol as an effective military weapon. AUTHOR: Hermann Hampe was born in Hannover, Germany in 1961. He lives in Cannes and intends to pursue further research and publications in the historical development of the legendary Japanese Nihonto swords. Jean Varret was born in 1963 in the north of France, an area that was deeply marked from the two World Wars. He lives and works in Cannes, and he has a deep interest in aviation and fine automobiles. 500 colour images Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A sumptuous collection of nearly 100 German military edged weapons, predominantly swords and daggers, are displayed in close-up detail, together with information on what is known about their owners. Legacies in Steel is focused on historical edged weapons of the German military from 1800 to 1990. Nearly 100 examples have been carefully selected from some of the most important private collections in the world as well as German museums, the largest compendium of personalised edged weapons published to date. Through the photographic lens, details of these elegant and beautiful objects are featured. Many of these edged weapons belonged to nobility, aristocrats, high-ranking military personnel as well as soldiers and seamen. Where possible, the careers and courageous exploits of the former owners are highlighted. An appreciation of this historical context transforms what is a beautiful and sublimely crafted artifact in its own right, into a portal to the past by putting a face to an otherwise inanimate object. Swords and daggers, although having long outlived their utility as effective fighting weapons, maintained their popularity in Western Europe as uniform regalia and this reached its zenith in the 19th through mid-20th centuries. They were carried with great pride as a symbol of authority, organizational and social distinction, achievement and most importantly, honour. These weapons were produced with great skill and at high cost during the heyday of German edged weapon production. They required extensive handwork by many specialised and highly skilled artisans, often using precious metals and ivory, elaborate hand engraving and chiseling. Blades were fabricated of the highest quality Solingen steel. Folded steel damascus blades were also painstakingly and selectively produced. Many examples are unique and border on singular works of art. The authors are dedicated to preserving not only these beautiful historical artifacts but equally important, the legacy and honour of each of the original owners. This beautifully presented book with stunning close-up photography of the weapons will be a lasting record of these extraordinary objects. AUTHORS: Hermann Hampe was born in Hannover, Germany in 1961. After completing his economics education he has been involved in real estate development. During his free time he researches and writes about a number of historical themes in the area of edged weapons. Rick Dauzat is a retired oil and gas executive. His professional career spanned 34 years with his greatest expertise in petroleum exploration and production in Africa and North America. His passion for history and in particular, the exquisite edged weapons of Imperial Germany prior to 1919 spans over 25 years. Full colour throughout A sumptuous collection of nearly 100 German military edged weapons, predominantly swords and daggers, are displayed in close-up detail, together with information on what is known about their owners.
