A propos de cet article

Octavo, orange cloth (hardcover), 119 pp + [viii] pp ads. Fine in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: Based on American design, the British-made Enfield rifle was one of the most handsome and effective military arms of its day. While large quantities of these highly regarded rifles were imported by both North and South during the American Civil War, it was in the hands of the weapons-starved Confederacy that the Enfield was to see its greatest moment. Southern blockade runners cargoed shipments of these arms right up to the last days of the great rebellion. The international intrigue, the historical personalities and much of the personal correspondence that accompanied the traffic of Enfields to the C.S.A. is carefully chronicled on these pages by author Wiley Sword, a rapidly rising authority on American military subjects. Additionally, collectors will benefit from the author's theories regarding identification of those Enfields that saw Confederate service -- long a matter of argument and conjecture among arms historians. Another weapons with strong romatnic/historical attachments to the South was the technically remarkable LeMat revolver. Although this rare pistol quickly established itself in notoriety, little has been published regarding the manner in which the LeMat reached its Confederate market. New research presented here will prove of interest to many students of the times. As a bonus, information regarding a variety of other Confederate small arms is presented within the appendixes.
