"One hundred questions concerning shotguns answered by one of the greatest living gun experts. A unique and necessary little book to every man who handles shotguns or rifles, for it gives information that is not obtainable elsewhere." "It is now more than twenty years since the first appearance of this littlebook. ...As the years have passed, I have found that some problems seemed to become out of date, while others have been repeated again and again and seem never to lose their attraction or interest. But there have also been new difficulties and possible misunderstandings which must almost inevitably accompany any new departures in fire arms and ammunition ...In this new Edition I have, therefore, tried to bring the subjects included up to date, while at the same time retaining those which by constant repetition have been proved to be of more than individual or passing interest, and thus increasing the total number of Questions and Answers considerably."
