A groundbreaking treatise based on fifteen years of research, Torsten Lenk's classic study of the flintlock has been acclaimed for decades as the essential book on the subject. His passion for this historic weapon was almost as remarkable as his precision and his eye for detail. From his post as Director of the Swedish Royal Armory, he traveled far and wide to inspect thousands of rare weapons stored in private collections. His illuminating volume encompasses the development of this essential hunting and fighting tool, and it is without equal as a reference for flintlock collectors, dealers, or owners—or for anyone with an interest in weapons and history.

Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. First Edition. 188 Pages. First edition by the full number line. This is a very in-depth book about the flintlock gun, its long history and use. The book's exterior has some light scuffing on the front and rear covers, though outside of this, there are no further observed detriments nor any visible extraneous markings and hence all of the book's printing and very numerous photographs are in a very well-preserved condition and the interior book remains tightly glued into its cover. If you order this very comprehensive book on the flintlock gun from us, we will carefully wrap it up in either foam or bubble wrap, and then mail it right away to you in a new and extra padded envelope with both insurance and tracking on it.
