2012 Reprint of 1948 Edition. Exact facsimile of the original
edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Julian
Sommerville Hatcher was a noted firearms expert and author of the
early twentieth century. He is credited with several technical
books and articles relating to military firearms, ballistics, and
auto loading weapons. His premier works are "Hatcher's Notebook"
and "Book of the Garand." He was also a pioneer in the forensic
identification of firearms and their ammunition. Hatcher retired
from the United States Army as a Major General. Afterward, he
served as Technical Editor of the National Rifle Association's
"American Rifleman" magazine. Hatcher's "Book of the Garand" is the
definitive chronicle of the rifle General George S. Patton called
"the greatest battle implement ever devised." Hatcher follows the
evolution of the M1 Garand from the first semiautomatic hunting
rifles to the devastating U.S. infantry weapon of WWII.
