Gobbell's review comments about Marines and SEALS might not be exactly gospel, but it's close enough.

Worman University of New Mexico Press, 2005 Great Read - A must for fans of the American West !!!! I received a copy of this book while recovering from major surgery and despite its bulk (500 plus pages), I couldn't put it down. I especially enjoyed the photos and detailed coverage of firearms use in frontier life in the 1800s, a topic I've not seen covered so well elsewhere.
