The 21st Century can be described as the age of ancestry, with people across the country researching their family trees to discover early settlers, or even tracing their roots to communities across the globe. The same "spark of discovery" exists for historic firearms collectors who have a passion for researching the history of their guns and the lives of their original owners. In Guts, Glory, and Gunsmoke, author Jerry W. Pitstick presents twenty short stories describing historic pistols from his collection, with intimate details about their origins and owners. From Civil War soldiers, to frontier fighters, Canadian revolutionaries, U.S. diplomats, and the father of New York City subways, this book provides a glimpse of life in the 1800s through vintage firearms research. Guts, Glory, and Gunsmoke is the perfect book for historians, researchers, and collectors, and an excellent guide for those new to antique gun collecting.
