In this carefully researched study, Frederick Wilkinson describes the pistol's evolution and use both as a weapon of war - valued alike by horsed cavalrymen and tank crews - and of peace, or "peace with honour" in the duelists' view. The book is handsomely designed, and illustrated with 250 pictures, many of them in colour.
