Description
 
Reprint of 1913 brief History
A brief history of Westley Richards from 1812-1912 by Leslie B. Taylor

Leslie B Taylor (1863-1930) was a great pioneer in sporting guns, rifles and ballistics during what many consider to be the Golden Age of Gunmaking. He spent his entire working life at Westley Richards and amongst other things saw the titanic transition from black powder to nitro powder which in itself revolutionized gun and in particular rifle ballistics and development.
This book provides an official account of the personal characteristics and business qualifications of the successive heads of the Westley Richards Firm.
