Condition: Very Good. Revised edition. 4to, cloth Issued 1962, 1964, 1968, " Lindert's book is divided into three main parts. The first part presents stories and anecdotes of early Indiana history in which use of guns was important; the second lists individual Indiana gunmakers, almost all of whom apparently worked during the 1800's, and offers biographical data concerning them; and the third gives descriptive material about the making of guns in Indiana. Parts II and III are much the more useful sections." Lindert was from Homewood, Illinois. Pagination changes from 217 to 284 - reportedly with the least pages in the 1968 edition. Illustrated by James A. Wuellner, and with photogravures. Scarce.
