This book sets out to rectify this situation, describing Adam's and Tranter's revolvers. as valued in their day as any of Webley's products, and including guns from the more obscure makers neglected by previous writers.

Smaller English Revolver Manufacturers
Adams and Beaumont-Adams Revolvers
Tranter Revolvers
Webley Revolvers
English Military Pistols and Revolvers
Accessories
Collecting Antique Revolvers
