Written by professional gunsmith and master stockmaker Tom Morrow, who has practiced his trade for 30 years. Morrow was the last apprentice hired by Griffen & Howe when it was the gun division of the celebrated New York sporting good store Abercrombie & Fitch, outfitter to Ernest Hemingway, Teddy Roosevelt, Gary Cooper and countless other hunting and fishing enthusiasts. He brings Old World hints and techniques that are seldom seen anywhere in print to this valuable guide. Indispensable in the gun room and for armchair reading for anyone who shoots a gun.
