SCHIF (C.) REMINGTON'S FIRST REVOLVERS: THE REMINGTON BEALS .31 CALIBER REVOLVERS. 110pp., 4to, handsomely illustrated throughout in full colour. 2007.

In 1857 Remington introduced their first revolver. Designed by Fordyce Beales, these pocket -sized innovators began this famous company's long and successful run of percussion and cartridge handguns. This is a magnificently illustrated and comprehensive study of these firearms. It must be the last word on the subject.
