Was at an Ohio Gun Collectors Association show this past Saturday and came upon an interesting book lying on a nearly empty table written by Robery L. Klinger. My copy is from 1967. The old man barely watching over his sale items could not hear me so I made hand motions about the book and bought it for $5. I think anyone who is interested in adding some living history to their presentations should give this a look. It is filled with interesting information, sketches, and patterns taken from real Revolutionary War items in museums around the northeast.

There are a few copies new and used on Amazon. Please remember to add the RWVA to your Amazon Smile account before clicking to buy.
