About this title: "An eye grabber: large, clear photographic layouts of weapons share pages with explanatory text and definitive illustrations. Each double spread covers a subject, from primitive weapons to the 'Guns That Won the West'; it's easy to forget their function in the beauty of the pieces and their clever designs. . . . A plum pudding of a book".--Kirkus Reviews. IRA Teacher's Choice.
