A MUST HAVE book for machinists, gunsmiths and shooters, back in print for the first time in nearly two decades. If you've ever read any of Lucian Cary's J.M. Pyne stories*, you'll want this book! Wholesome and heart-warming, ripe with the fragrance of gunpowder and cutting oil, these stories combine humor, suspense, insights into human nature, and a certain amount of shop wisdom. They sprang from the pen of master story teller Lucian Cary more than 80 years ago, in part as a direct reflection of his long friendship with legendary rifle barrel maker Harry Pope. You will read and re-read them all, with fresh enjoyment each time. Also included are several other of Cary's equally entertaining, instructive and uplifting stories and articles. Also makes a perfect gift for your favorite gunsmith, or shooting pal. Edited by Guy Lautard, author of The Machinist's Bedside Reader series. Contents: * Almost a Gun Crank * H. M. Pope - Last of the Great Gunsmiths * The Rifle Crank * The Big Game Hunting of Rufus Peattie * Madman of Gaylord's Corner * The Old Man who Fixes the Guns * Forty Rod Gun * Johnny Gets His Gun * Center Shot to Win * J.M. Shoots Twice * The Secret of the Old Master* * No Choice * Revenge in Moderation * Harmless Old Man * Let the Gun Talk * The Guy who had Everything * How's That? * I Shall Not Be Afraid * See The Machinist's Bedside Reader for "The Secret of the Old Master". "No Choice" and "Revenge in Moderation" are Parts 2 and 3 of a trilogy, of which "The Secret.." was but Part 1.
