2000. 128pp. Colour and B&W illustrations. "Established in 1770, London's oldest living gunmaker, Cogswell & Harrison, as the business became known in the mid-19th century, has manufactured an enormous variety of sporting guns throughout its long and colorful history. In the 19th century, under the direction of Edgar Harrison, the most influential figure in its history, Cogswell & Harrison became known for its ingenious innovations in gun-making technology, and numerous patents are listed in the book as evidence of this. Graham Cooley and John Newton have gathered a wealth of fascinating historical and technical material, which will make this book indispensable, not only to many thousands of 'Coggie' owners worldwide, but also to everyone interested in the general history of British gunmaking." Both book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions.
