Item description from seller

A wonderful book. The book itself is in great shape. The dustjacket is blindstamped damaged on the lower front right-hand corner (I only saw it from the reflection of the mylar protective cover that is over the jacket). The unclipped DJ has a few edge chips and small wrinkling to the spine top otherwise it is in pretty nice shape. The book has been inscribed by the author (once president of the Company of Military Historians) to a fellow member of the company stating " For Don Wagner who has spent many years with old firearms (he was a collector and civil war reinactor at Gettysburg), signed by the author. 352 pp, brown pastedowns and ep's.

Store description

Barry's Books has been in existence for approximately 40 years. I have bought and sold various books of a general nature in over 35 states and 15 countries. My inventory, although small by most standards is unique in that I have collected some of the most unusual and hard to find titles in the best condition possible. Many of the books are signed, limited editions, first editions, or unusual illustrated editions. I am slowly liquidating my personal collection of books which have never before been offered.…
