The world of antique firearms comes to life in this story of a 20-year quest for 13 pieces of American history. In A Collector's Guide to the Colt Root Sidehammer, Malcolm R. Burnette describes in affectionate detail the most exotic of the revolvers produced by Samuel Colt in 19th century New England, imparts a wealth of knowledge and advice to would-be collectors, and illustrates with brilliant color photographs the 13 variations of the Colt Root Sidehammer of 1855 - 1870, the cases that held them, and the accessories that accompanied them. You don't have to be a Colt collector to enjoy this book. If history fascinates you, if finely crafted artifacts appeal to you, or if you've ever collected anything with passion, you'll feel welcome inside its pages.

Malcolm R. Burnette grew up in the mountain community of Bee Tree in Western North Carolina. He spent his youth hunting and fishing and searching for arrowheads in the plowed fields near his home, and in early youth he developed an appreciation and respect for firearms. Throughout their lives he and his wife Jackie have collected firearms ranging from Kentucky rifles to Damascus-barreled percussion shotguns to the Colt revolvers that are the subject of this book. They currently live in Florida and travel frequently to visit their two daughters and their grandchildren and to pursue their collecting hobby.
