Hunters Encyclopedia from 1948

I bought it by the pound from an old cellar under a book store full of books, by the pound, some years back.
Many of the paper back books were bargains.
But this weighs 6 1/2 pounds and was the most expensive book I bought that day.
Lots of interesting articles about some of the guns I like, have or have had.
And how to blue, stock, repair, shoot, reload, cast and more.
