Add to basketCondition: Muy bueno. E. J. D. NEWITT - THE CITIZEN RIFLEMAN - GEORGE NEWNES LIMITED - 1906 Interesante manual británico publicado en Londres en 1906 en el contexto del extraordinario desarrollo que alcanzaron los clubes civiles de tiro con rifle de pequeño calibre durante los años anteriores a la Primera Guerra Mundial. E. J. D. Newitt pertenecía al Southfields Rifle Club y formaba parte del consejo de la Society of Miniature Rifle Clubs, institución directamente relacionada con la difusión de esta práctica en Gran Bretaña. El libro constituye por ello un documento especialmente significativo para estudiar tanto el deporte como la cultura asociativa y las preocupaciones sobre preparación cívica y entrenamiento existentes en la sociedad británica de comienzos del siglo XX. La obra posee un notable aparato gráfico. Incluye representaciones de distintos modelos de rifles y cartuchos, instalaciones para galerías de tiro y sistemas destinados a organizar campos interiores. Entre las páginas fotografiadas aparecen rifles Winchester y Savage, diversos cartuchos calibre .22 y esquemas del denominado Ian Hamilton Range, además de una relación específica de las ilustraciones incorporadas al volumen. Su interés actual es principalmente histórico y documental: permite reconstruir la tecnología, los clubes, equipamientos y modalidades organizativas vinculadas al tiro deportivo británico eduardiano. La cubierta resulta especialmente atractiva, con composición en rojo, verde y negro y la figura de un "citizen rifleman" de 1608, vinculando gráficamente la práctica contemporánea con una tradición histórica inglesa. La primera edición fue publicada por George Newnes Limited en Londres en 1906 y consta de XII + 184 páginas, dos páginas adicionales y diecisiete láminas. Ficha técnica Autor: E. J. D.
