Book excerpt: From 1961 till the early 1980s Elmer Keith was a regular contributor to Guns & Ammo magazine, with a monthly column entitled "Gun Notes." Here are the most interesting writings from his long writing career at Guns & Ammo magazine. This book is entirely devoted to pistols, revolvers, bolt-action and double rifles, shotguns, ammunition, loads, bullets, and accessories. Keith was one of the country's most knowledgeable experts on big-bore calibers, and this book has a wealth of information based on his lifelong experience with just about every imaginable sporting arm. In addition, the book contains letters from Elmer Keith to Truman Fowler, who was the publisher of Keith's Safari book; it also contains the correspondence from Fowler (a well-known big-bore advocate) to Jack O'Connor, who took exception to much of what Keith and Fowler recommended. This is more than highly entertaining reading -- the pages of the correspondence literally sizzle under your fingertips! Gun Notes is illustrated with photos from the Guns & Ammo files. Keith wrote ten books, in all, on hunting and firearms and was an absolute believer in big-bore rifles with heavy bullets. Over this issue, he and Jack O'Connor, another well-known sports writer and contemporary of Keith's, had a bitter running feud for years. Keith was also instrumental in the development of the .44 Magnum, .41 Magnum, and .338 Magnum cartridges as well as numerous other firearm and ballistic innovations. He was one of America's best shots with rifle, handgun, and shotgun. Keith was, perhaps, best known for his articles that appeared in numerous magazines from before World War II until the early 1980s. Book jacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The acknowledged dean of American gun writers, Elmer Keith began his writing career in 1926, when his first piece appeared in American Rifleman, and continued until 1981, when he suffered a disabling stroke. During this 50-plus year period, Keith wrote hundreds of articles for a wide variety of publications, including American Rifleman, Guns & Ammo and Outdoor Life. From these articles and his books (Sixguns, Big Game Rifles and Cartridges), Keith developed a loyal following with whom he corresponded regularly. At one point it is estimated that he averaged 300-500 letters each month to readers, answering questions about hunting, matching appropriate cartridges and firearms to specific targets, handloading ammo and related topics. Timothy J Mullin, a noted gun writer, corresponded with Keith and kept all the letters he received. Discovering that other recipients had also saved their letters, Mullin decided to collect as many as he could and compile them into a book. He ran advertisements in Shotgun News and placed a large sign at the Elmer Keith Museum in Salmon, Idaho, seeking letters from Keith. Soon, he started receiving copies from all over the country. Some letters dealt with hunting issues, others strictly guns and ammo (including the Magnum revolver cartridges Keith developed and for which he is best known: the .357, .41 and .44), but most were a mixed bag of practical advice, unfiltered commentary and insightful tales of life on the American frontier. Rounding out the compilation are never-before published photos of Elmer Keith, with his trademark cigar, 10-gallon hat and sixguns
