The Guns of Harpers Ferry
Stuart E. Brown
Volume  totaling
157
pages. Book is in new  condition.
This authoritative book tells the story of the Harpers Ferry  armory and provides an illustrated catalogue of the weaponry produced there. It  will appeal to Civil War buffs, gun collectors, and others interested in the  history of the Shenandoah Valley.
The firearms produced in Harpers Ferry were used in the Lewis and  Clark expedition, the War of 1812, Commodore Perry’s voyage to Japan, the  Mexican War, and in virtually all of the battles of the Civil War. Fully  illustrated with photographs and drawings of all models of firearms produced at  Harpers Ferry, this excellent work is as close as we are likely to come to a  complete account of Harpers Ferry gunlore.
