This book was written by RL Wilson. The text is nothing really new, but the photos are fantastic and worth the price of the book. Most of Wilson's other books (Colt: An American Legend, Winchester: an American Legend) only show perfect condition or engraved pieces, and so are of limited usefulness to the collector who is not wealthy. But this book shows lots of old guns that were actually used in the old west. Lots of good period photos as well. If you like old west guns, you should own this book. You can buy it used for a very reasonable price on Amazon or Abebooks.
