by Ronald Vail. Softbound, 29 pages, 8-1/2" x 11". A Collection of Sayings Engraved on Eighteenth Century American Powder Horns. Studying original horns in museums, private collections, and those found in books about early American powder horns, the author started keeping notes to save research time and wear-and-tear on the books. The layout of words appears as engraved on the various horns. Letter placement, incorrect spelling, letter substitution, and phonetic spelling are also as appear on the horns studied.
