SynopsisCartridges: A Pictorial Digest of Small Arms Ammunition, first published in 1959, is a compendium of firearms ammunition beginning with the earliest paper and combustible cartridges, to the modern rim-fire and center-fire cartridges in use today. All calibers of small-arms ammunition are included, and for each cartridge, author Herschel Logan provides a concise description and usage note, and a detailed line drawing of approximately life-size. A useful Cartridge Chronology traces the development of ammunition from 846 A.D. to 1934, and the Appendix discusses primers, bullets, patents, and manufacturer's headstamps. While newer works are now available, Herschel's Cartridges remains a classic introduction to the subject and an invaluable reference for the historian, gun-collector, or sportsman.
