The Complete Handgun: 1300 to the Present by Ian V. Hogg. Illustrated by John Batchelor. 'This large book covers the story of the duelling pistol, the Colt revolvers of the American West, the Colt 45, and the Luger, the Broomhandle Mauser and the Browning HiPower. It is the story of guns that made history, some as infamous assassins, weapons and some as trusted side arms for soldiers, and it is also the tale of inventors and engineers with vision or crazy ideas. Above all, it is the story of a weapon that has become a man's last line of defence before he grapples with an assailant in hand to hand combat.'
