Actually, I have two - one with Merlin Unwin as the publisher (sold in UK) and one with Safari Press (sold in USA). I found two mistakes! Still, for a 225 page book with an average of three photos per page, two mistakes I can live with, I guess. OK, so here is the challenge, The first person to e-mail me with the two mistakes I found today will win a lovely, top quality, all leather, hand made in England, Hoxleigh gun slip or cartridge bag (you choose). The book is out on September 30th, I'll be at the US launch party in Richmond, Nr Houston, to which you are all invited on October 20th and I'll have copies. Actually, I'm really pleased with the way it came out. Nice quality paper, good format, same size as the previous effort and a nice companion volume to it. It is called 'The British Boxlock Gun & Rifle'. Last edited by Small Bore; 08/23/12 05:15 PM. www.vintageguns.co.uk

Could you punch them up about getting it available as soon as possible? I'm looking forward to reading it, and hope it is as good as your first.

If there are only two mistakes (hopefully inconsequential) in a 225 page book you are doing very well indeed! Cheers, Roger C.
