by Walter M. Cline. Hardbound, 162 pages, 8" x 11". Recently reprinted, this 1948 publication has become a classic among modern muzzleloading shooters. The author's life spanned a gap between the original muzzleloading era of the 1800's and the start of the modern rebirth of muzzleloading. He brings us a unique insight into muzzleloading techniques and equipment of both eras. This extensive compilation of the muzzleloading rifle features preserved data concerning the development of the "hallowed ole arms of the Southern highlands." A fascinating book for shooters and historians.
