(1981) 2003 2nd edition. Swan Hill Press. Wykey, Shrewsbury. Pp192. Colour & b/w photographs, illustrations, maps. Mint in dust-wrapper.
Notes: Robin Marshall-Ball gives a very readable account of the modern shotgun and its use, beginning with a brief history of the species, a chapter each on the shotgun's parts, the double barrelled shotgun, repeaters and single shots. Game shooting in Britain, Europe and North America receive a chapter each, taking the reader through such things as huge bags of Spanish partridge and goose shooting with 8 bores, and a lot more besides.
