This book by Eric Bye is a compilation of information that should satisfy the interest of anyone pursuing the understanding, proper care, and use of the flintlock muzzleloading guns. The two sections “Problems and Solutions” and “Trivia and Tidbits” add much interest to the book, along with the tremendous historical research the author has done.
In these pages Eric has well covered flintlock muzzleloading guns of all types, from rifles to pistols, smoothbores, and shotguns. Many years must have been consumed in the research and study of these guns in order to compile so much
technical information. Even after 50 years of shooting, studying, custom building, and collecting fine
Kentucky rifles I feel this book will be an asset to my library. – Homer L. Dangler
