Large tears and adhesive tape stains to dust-jacket. Dust-jacket protected in archival mylar cover.; Third revised edition. 217, [3 (blank)] pages + 30 plates. 5 in-text figures. Green cloth boards with gilt lettering on spine. Page dimensions: 215 x 137mm. "Major Sir Gerald Burrard has unrivalled experience as an expert witness in legal cases in which firearms played a prominent part, and in this book he discusses the fundamental essentials of firearms and ballistics which are of forensic importance. It is difficult to exaggerate the importance of a proper understanding of the principles of firearms identification. A man or woman may be shot and the only definite evidence connecting the murderer with his victim may be the killer's bullet or a spent cartridge case found near the scene of the crime." - from dust-jacket blurb.
