Synopsis

Gargantuan Gunsite Gossip Volume 3 is the third and final volume of the series. It covers the years 2001 through 2006, marking the 26th year of monthly issues of Jeff Cooper's newsletter. This volume is particularly interesting in that it covers the attacks of September 11, 2001 and the subsequent conduct of America's military and cultural response.

The Gunsite Gossip newsletters contained Jeff Cooper's thoughts on firearms, training trends, the activities of friends and associates, analyses of real-world firearm techniques as he received firsthand data from the field, philosophical musings, cultural commentaries, literary reviews, thoughts on Nature, hunting, morality, ethics, and political and social trends in modern America.

These writings provide an invaluabe insight into the mind of Colonel Cooper, one of the most original thinkers of the 20th century.

The artwork by his friend and longtime collaborator Paul Kirchner is, as always, wonderful. This edition includes a Preface by his grand-daughter Amy Heath Lovato; an Afterword by Janelle Cooper, his beloved wife and lifelong friend; and a Tribute by his daughter, Lindy Cooper Wisdom, the publisher and editor-in-chief of Wisdom Publishing.

This is a handsomely designed, high quality paperback, printed on acid-free paper.

About this title

About the Author:

Author, teacher, scholar, philosopher-Jeff Cooper is internationally known as the father of the modern technique of the pistol. He was much more. A shooter, hunter and avid appreciator of achievement of all kinds, he was a connoisseur of excellence whose leadership inspired, and continues to inspire, those it touches

Review:

This book joins Volumes 1 and 2 in my library and, like the others, it is a book I can pick up and read again and again, always gaining some new insight or inspiration. --Letter to the publisher.

Jeff had the most amazing ability to get right to the heart of any matter and then just nail it! I am only sorry that there will be no more of his wisdom to enjoy. --Letter to the publisher.
