A Revolution in Arms by Joseph G Bilby
Historians often call the American Civil War the first modern war, pointing to the use of observation balloons, the telegraph, trains, mines, ironclad ships, and other innovations. This book unfolds the story of how two New England inventors combined generations of cartridge and rifle technology to develop reliable repeating rifles.
JOSEPH G. BILBY is a columnist for Civil War News and author of many works on Civil War history, including Civil War Firearms, recipient of the LSU Civil War Center's Award of Excellence, and Remember Fontenoy: The 69th New York and the Irish Brigade in the Civil War.
