Mann, Franklin The Bullet's Flight from Powder to Target, the Internal and External Ballistics of Small Arms A Study of Rifle Shooting with the Personal Element Excluded Disclosing the Cause of the Error At Target
Prescott, Arizona Wolfe Publishing Co 1980 Reprint Hardcover Fine+
Large octovo hardcover in fine dark green cloth: gilt decoration on front, title and author in gilt lettering with "Margin Notes by Harry M. Pope": the binding is tight as to new specifications, pages are brilliant white and crisp, the covers are like new unworn, an unread copy, VERY FINE, no DJ (as issued? ) . Reprint of the 1909 edition but with Harry Pope's marginal notation. Pope was a famous precision rifle barrel maker who knew Mann, perhaps from the Massachusetts Schooting Association, who made notations in his 1909 copy. Later the Publisher Wolf through Pope's son was able to republish the book and included Pope's notes as found. Due to the fame of Pope this republication is unusual and exciting for a shooting book. Illustrated as in the original edition but in addition is the facsimile notation: "This book written by his best friend, was autographed by Dad.... (signed) Allen Pope" The foreward is the written text of an interview by Neal Knox (then editor of Handloader and Rifle magazines) with Pope's son Charlie. A super nice copy this is. ; The Ballistics of Small Arms; 8vo 8" - 9" tall
