Reviews
"If you love old Colts, this book will be a welcome addition to your bookshelf." ~ Guns Magazine "...catalogues a signature collection of memorabilia from the Steve Jobs of the nineteenth century: Samuel Colt, the man who gave America the 6-shooter. The cynical joke in the American West was that God didn''t make men equal, Samuel Colt did. Colt...may not have invented the repeating rifle or the six-shooter that he quickly turned into his company''s core product. But like Steve Jobs more than a century later, he created the industry shaped his century. Colt: The Revolver from the American West , reviews that accomplishment by examining 100 pieces from the Greg Martin Colt Gallery at the Autry National Center in Los Angeles. Although the collection is dedicated to the historic firearms, it also includes the maquette of a rearing colt, arguably the first corporate brand and probably the most recognizable logo of the 1800s." ~ Town & Country Magazine "This handsomely hefty volume is packed with delightfully detailed essays and magnificent photos of 100 of the most important Colt models, including guns belonging to Wyatt Earp, John Wesley Hardin, William S. Hart, and Teddy Roosevelt. Published by Rizzoli with their usual high quality standards, this will be a perfect addition to the library of any Colt collector, cowboy gun aficionado, or frontier history buff." ~Gun World "Hundreds of books have been written about Samuel Colt and his guns, and hundreds more about historical episodes in which they were involved. Now, Jeffrey Richardson has combined both aspects of Colt history in his magnificent book Colt: The Revolver of the American West. Richardson, curator of the Autry collection in Los Angeles, has chosen one hundred of the finest Colts in the collection and presented them with a combination of superb photography and detailed information about each particular gun, where it was, and what it did. Richardson presents Colt history in a manner that will appeal to collectors, historians, and anyone with an interest in fine guns." ~Terry Wieland, Shooting Editor, Gray''s Sporting Journal "Through my outdoor series Gun Stories , I have the privilege of meeting a lot of people and handling a lot of guns. The Colt revolver is a most important gun and Jeffrey Richardson''s participation on my show has been invaluable. His knowledge and style are apparent in his great new book. It is a fitting honor for the great Colt collection at the Autry Museum, here in Los Angeles, and a must read for firearms aficionados, collectors, and fans of the West." ~ Joe Mantegna, Host of Gun Stories "Colt is ideal for the historian and scholar, the collector, and anyone who is fascinated by the great American West and its captivating culture. The text offers not only reliable and interesting facts, but is accompanied by many legends of the Colt. Not the least of those legends - Sam Colt himself. It is exciting to welcome such a landmark publication to the pantheon of works on the American West, and on firearms." - R.L. Wilson, author, antiquarian, Colt employee (1964-65), and consultant since 1966 " ...the Autry Collection''s 100 most important examples to document and celebrate the history of Samuel Colt''s revolutionary invention. Along with some early examples of the Colt Patterson and Colt Walker, you''ll see and read about Colt Single Action Army, serial #1, Wild Bill''s Colt Navy, and Wes Hardin''s 1876 Colt Double Action. Not to be outdone, Richardson also includes guns used by Ken Maynard, Gene Autry, and Clayton Moore (the one and only Lone Ranger). Unlike a lot of coffee table book s, Colt: The Revolver of the American W est includes a lot of information about the 100 guns chosen and includes great professional photographs. The book is an extremely good blend of entertainment as well as in-depth research." ~ Jim Wilson , Senior Field Editor/NRA Publications, "If you love old Colts, this book will be a welcome addition to your bookshelf." ~ Guns Magazine "...catalogues a signature collection of memorabilia from the Steve Jobs of the nineteenth century: Samuel Colt, the man who gave America the 6-shooter.
