The various Civil War era firearms produced under the patents of
Edward Lindner encompass some of the rarest of American breech
loading arms. These include muzzle loading rifles and carbines
converted to his breech loader design as well as altered Hall
Patent rifles and new made carbines. There has been a scarcity of
correct information about their history and use. This book provides
collectors and arms historians with a more complete and correct
historical record of the manufacture and issue to combat troops of
both new made carbines as well as conversions of obsolete rifles
and carbines to Lindner's breech loading system. Using countries
included not only the U.S. but also Argentina, Brazil and France.
The book consists of 116 pages, 45 black & white illustrations
and full color covers. "Ed Hull is a meticulous researcher with an
amazing ability to ferret out long-forgotten documentation. His new
work on the Lindner Carbines provides new and important information
on these extremely scarce breech-loaders of the American Civil
War." Joe Poyer, author of THE AMERICAN KRAG RIFLE AND CARBINE and
THE .45-70 SPRINGFIELD ..".a valuable reference for students and
collectorsof American military shoulder arms, especially those who
focus on the percussion breech loading arms used during the Civil
War." George D. Moller, author of the multi-volume AMERICAN
MILITARY SHOULDER ARMS
I have always wanted to write a book ever since I can remember but
one day I was listening to a programme on Radio 5, which I don't
normally listen to, Sir Terry Pratchett the famous author was on
there saying how everyone has something in them but if they can't
write it down or if they can't type, try and get it down somehow
After a while, a couple of days after listening to the programme I
was asked to go and clear up something at work and funnily enough
there were two dictaphones. I thought this was a bit spooky so I
decided to use one of the dictaphones and start my book. It wasn't
easy, it was difficult at first to talk into a tape recorder and
put down your feelings and thoughts on there. This book was done
purely through my imagination, the characters are purely my
thoughts and I see how everything was when I was a kid at school,
how we were brought up and how the school is broken down into
different elements at school, where you have some friends there,
some friends there, not so many friends there, no friends there and
you went around in a group all your life. This book is about Bong,
how he meets his friends, how he falls out with friends and how he
has some great friends and they always will be, this is what the
book is all about, friends. The biggest thing about the book is
honour and respect to your friends and family. The characters in
the book are also caricatures of themselves which is
self-explanatory.
Due to so much misinformation throughout America regarding
firearms, I got tired of seeing innocent people die each and every
day at the hands of criminals. I've come to take this poor
information and loss of innocent lives in this great country very
personally, and I decided to put together a book that very
thoroughly explains the way firearms and ammunition work and why
they do what they do. With extensive information, I hope to further
your knowledge and teach you many things to help save your life one
day.
This book is intended for those with absolutely no experience in
firearms and also for those professionals who carry a gun every day
for a living. It covers certain specific information to help every
household in America to become familiar with firearms, including
the most commonly owned firearms, so that nobody will be left
owning a gun they cannot or should not use, and prevent as many
injuries as possible. Also, it assures that you will learn
considerable information and be much more prepared to maintain your
life in addition to maintaining FREE America.
Based on the true story of the day to day events of the Papua New
Guinea Defence Force soldiers; they were sent on a mission to solve
a problem without solving their in-house problem first. Loyal as
they went, they met their fate on a brother land. A force that
sprung out of nowhere was formed to protect their motherland. It
was a civil war: the Bougainville Revolutionary Army against the
Papua New Guinea Defence Force which caused the giant CRA Copper
Mine, the Bougainville Copper Limited (BCL) to close losing
billions of dollars. This is the Begining of the Bougainville
Crisis.
