Muzzleloaders for Hunters by Wm. Hovey Smith

Far more that just a list of guns, Muzzleloaders for Hunters, is and interactive book linked to YouTube videos that is based on the author's 50-years of experience hunting with a large variety of black-powder guns in North America, Europe, and Africa. The book includes information about front-loading guns that are useful for small, medium, large, and dangerous game based on the author's experiences as an individual and former black powder editor of The Gun Digest Annual. Unusual features covered in the book are guns suitable for waterfowling with flintlock muskets, hunting big game with muzzleloading pistols, and taking deer and wild hogs with muzzleloading revolvers. Because he was never affiliated with any single company and owned, borrowed, and shot everyone's guns; he has an unusually broad knowledge about the hunting potential of many muzzleloading guns, like the blunderbuss, that is based on his experiences; rather than advertising hype. He readily shares his experiences, good and bad, with his readers.
