Small Arms of WWII: United States of America is the first in Headstamp Publishing’s newest book series covering the myriad of weapons developed and fielded around the globe by the various participants in the Second World War.
This book series blends fresh historical commentary and beautiful photography to give readers a new understanding and perspective of small arms development before, during, and after the war. Author Ian McCollum (of Forgotten Weapons) and photographer James Rupley (of Vickers Guide) have teamed up to create a book series that is simultaneously engaging, entertaining, educational, and artistically gorgeous.
The Second World War was a fascinating and dynamic time in the history of firearms – a period that began with revolvers and bolt-action weapons, and ended with the first generations of modern select-fire combat rifles.
