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.

Octavo, orange cloth (hardcover), 124 pp. Fine in a Fine, mylar protected dust jacket. From dust jacket: No unit of the American Civil War served with more effect, or won more renown, than Berdan's Sharpshooter's; and acclaimed historian Wiley Sword tells us why. In these pages you will find the story of the United States Sharpshooters from beginning to end, including the inspired inventor who founded and commanded the famous unit, the hand-picked men who manned its ranks, and the innovative weapon which they used with such precision. From training camp to the dissolution of the unit, Sword traces the story of the 1st and 2nd U.S.S.S.: the qualities faults of their celebrated leader, the internal power struggles among the officers and men, their efforts to procure the Sharps rifle, the units legendary fighting spirit, the basis for their popularity with the press and notoriety with the rest of the army. Rich in anecdotal material, Sword's text also reaches scientific precision, especially when he presents information for Berdan Sharps rifle collectors. His serial number charts alone are essential for identification. Also included are two fascinating appendices, "The Dairy (1864) of Private William B. Green, Co. G., 2D U.S.S.S." (such accounts are very rare, especially late in the war, because of the unit's high mortality rate), and "The Report of Major George G. Hastings, 1st U.S.S.S., of the Battle of Chancellorsville, May 3, 1863", a document highly revealing of Berdan's character and how he was regarded by the officers who served under him.
