Customer Reviews
Excellent reference book for anyone interested in firearms!
I have several editions of this book and it continues to share new knowledge of the history and development of firearms. Anyone interested in firearms history, military history, reloading, or just firearms in general will get hours of interesting reading and reference from this book. As someone who is a history nut, it is interesting to find a way to verify arms and their uses in conjunction with military campains and events..this provides a good source for that. I think that is what the late Frank Barnes wanted, a practical book of firearms knowledge that would appeal to a large audience of readers. Kirk Whitaker
Best and complete overview of cartridges
Great book, great overview and relevant information for the interested shooter and/or hunter.
Had for many years an older version of this book. Now it was time for an update.
For in depth information you can search the internet afterwards, but many times it is not necessary because Cartidges of the World give you enough information.
Every one should have one
Essential for anyone interested in balistics or firearms. Well laid out and comprehensive for its size.
