Firearms of the Wild West: In Association with the National Firearm Museum

The term “Wild West” is mainly used to cover the postbellum years of the second half of the nineteenth century, the years of the Indian Wars, gold rushes, the expanding frontier, and cowboys—and such personalities as Annie Oakley, Wild Bill Hickok, Wyatt Earp and the great bandits of the period: the James Gang, Billy the Kid, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. From Peacemaker to Navy Colt, Buntline Special to Winchester rifles, this book covers them all.
