""Truly fine guns are as much works of art as poems, novels, or paintings,"" writes acclaimed outdoor writer Michael McIntosh in this classic book. And who better to guide us through the world of fine guns than McIntosh. Here, he captured the whole gun--the gun as a combination of form, fit, and function. Divided into two sections, the first on the art of guns and gunmaking, and the last on the art of shooting, this book is, as McIntosh himself says, ""a celebration of the gun."" Indeed, it's a celebration no lover of fine double guns should miss.
