Soft Cover. Condición: New. Collector Bookstore Notes Describes the entire range of M1 Garand production on a part-by-part basis, by serial number & manufacturer. Includes quick-scan charts-dimensions, markings, finishes, changes, more. Publishers Description The most famous of all American battle rifles, the M1 Garand is described on a part-by-part basis, by serial number range and manufacturer. From the gas trap rifles through the M1C, M1D and MC 1952 Sniper, National Match, Navy 7.62 x 51 mm NATO, British, Danish, and all lend lease rifles, the text and illustrations have been up dated and new information added. This revised and expanded guide to the "greatest battle implement ever" (General George Patton) describes the entire range of M1 Garand production in text and quick-scan charts-dimensions, markings, finishes and changes by serial number range-in the manner our customers have come to expect from North Cape Publications, Inc. Any Garand can be analyzed in minutes to determine if it is "as manufactured" or to replace parts or rebuild the rifle to return it to its original condition and increase its collector's value. Every part by each of the four manufacturers-pre-World War II, World War II and post-War II-is analyzed and described. The book also provides the most complete analysis yet of the World War II M1 Garand as well as the M1C, M1D and MC 1952 sniper rifles. Included is a thorough discussion of their telescopic sights and mounts to pinpoint which one is correct for a particular period. The U.S. Navy's 7.62 x 51mm NATO rifles, all British, Danish, and other Lend-Lease M1 Garands are described. A classification structure for National Match Rifles has been devised which permits the collector to first determine whether or not a particular M1 Garand is a National Match rifle, and then to determine when it was assembled. We have also included the War Department's World War II list of subcontractors and the markings. This will aid in identifying correct, World War II parts.

Soft cover. Condición: New. Brand new 7th Edition, Revised. 275 pp. plus 4 color plates. The long awaited new 7th Edition, revised and expanded with an entirely new chapter added on the .22 Caliber M1 Rifle, with new serial number information, parts descriptions, and photos. Additional updates are made throughout this new editon, as well. The M1 Garand was the battle rifle issued to American forces during World War II and the Korean War. It was the first semiautomatic rifle design to be used by combat forces in any army of the world. It was standardized in 1936 and saw its first combat in the Philippines in December 1941. Few other rifles have developed such a distinguished record as both a battle rifle and a match target rifle. General George Patton called the M1 Garand the greatest battle implement ever devised. The semiautomatic M1 Garand gave the American soldier a distinct firepower advantage over enemy soldiers armed with bolt action rifles that had to be cocked before each shot. During World War II, nearly four million M1 Garands were built at the Springfield National Armory and Winchester Repeating Firearms factories. They were issued in every theater of the war. And hundreds of thousands were issued to French, Belgian, Greek, Italian and Philippine allies as well. During the Cold War years until the early 1960s, the M1 Garand was the mainstay of our small arms support programs to allied and friendly nations. In the last days of World War II, special variations of the M1 Garand, designated the M1C were developed and produced as sniper rifles. More were built during and after the Korean War as the M1D. Also, during the Korean War, the M1 Garand was put back into production at Springfield, and in the factories of two private concerns, bringing the total production to almost 6,000,000. Hundreds of thousands of M1 Garands were issued to soldiers of the Army of the Republic of South Vietnam. Thousands of M1 Garands were manufactured in the 1950s as Match Target rifles and these are also eagerly sought by collectors. After Congress approved the reimportation of certain military rifles for collecting purposes in 1986, it is estimated that nearly half a million of the 1.5 to 2 million M1 Garands shipped overseas to allied and friendly nations were allowed to be reimported. Collector's snapped them up eagerly and began to restore them to original condition. But the M1 Garand had undergone a such continuous process of improvement and upgrading that by the end of production in 1955, hardly a single part remained as it had originally been designed. The collector attempting to restore an M1 Garand to original, as-manufactured condition must first determine when his rifle was manufactured, then which part or parts need replacing. Keep in mind that there were four different manufacturers of the rifle, all of whom also made spare parts. Fortunately, every part of the M1 Garand carries at least one clue to its manufacturer and the date when it was made. Every major part was stamped with a part number; and these part numbers were changed every time the part was redesigned for improvement. Other clues are the type and color of finish, specific machine tool marks, factory codes and so on, all translated in The M1 Garand: 1936 to 1957. With this book in hand, the collector will find it easy to examine his or her rifle and determine which parts must be replaced to return it to its original state. The book also explains how to determine if replacement parts are correct and if they are of original manufacture or are so-called after-market parts of non-military origin. The book also describes in detail, the m1 Garand M1C, M1D,and MC-52 Sniper Rifles and the M1 Garand National Match Rifles. Excellent new book.

Narrow tall folio (approx. 15½" x 6¾"), 112 pp., in ink, five separately sewn signatures; a few pages loose, some pages darkened or chipped at edges; some entries faint. This account book is the record of the practice of either Stephen Pierce or Simeon Stoddard, practicing in Waitsfield, Vermont between 1795 and 1806. These were the second and third physicians to have settled and practiced in Waitsfield. (Most likely it is the record of Pierce, who is supposed to have settled in Waitsfield in 1795. The first physician in Waitsfield, Moses Heaton, remained there only between 1793 and 1796. Depending on the source, Pierce was the third physician to practice in Waitsfield and/or the first to practice in Moretown, a settlement to the northeast of Waitsfield. He farmed as well as doctored, and his farm lay mostly in Moretown, his office in Waitsfield. He was a respected and successful physician who served the community in other capacities: as selectman, representative, delegate to the Constitutional Convention of 1814, and Assistant Judge of the County Court. One source claims that he succeeded Judge Kinne December 1, 1814, and served one year, and that he was a justice of the peace in Waitsfield. He died either in 1854 after living in Waterbury and Berlin, Vermont, or he died in Barnard in 1864. (See: History of the Town of Waitsfield, Vermont 1782-1908, by Matt Bushnell Jones, Boston, 1909, p. 182.) Simeon Stoddard, on the other hand, was born December 12, 1761 either in Saybrook, Connecticut or in Waitsfield. On August 19, 1784 he married Abiah Thompson who had been born in 1763 in Waitsfield. Some sources state that he moved to Waitsfield from Saybrook in 1794. He served the southwestern area of Waitsfield and died in 1841. This account book records each date of visit, the householder's name, the relationship of patient to householder, the medicine prescribed and its price, and the cost of the doctor's visit. The doctor (whether it be Stoddard or Pierce) treated thirty to forty patients each month and as many as fifty-six in December of 1801. He charged as little as 4 pence and as much as 42 shillings 10 pence for his services. As a comparison, the tax on an acre of land in Waitsfield was 2 pence an acre. The poll tax list of 1795 showed fifty voters, so the doctor seems to have treated the members of nearly every family. The diseases treated are not stated in the entries made, but he seems to have prescribed antimonium tartaricum in many instances, and also digitalis. Waitsfield was founded by Col. Benjamin Wait (or Waite) and others who were granted a charter on February 25, 1782. Wait had served under Gen. Jeffery Amherst in the French and Indian Wars and had fought in the Revolutionary War. Both Waitsfield and Moretown are now somewhat renowned as the areas around Mad River, a popular ski resort. Mad River has been remarkable from the settling of the area as the source of numerous sudden, destructive, and deadly floods. The Green Mountains, the northern extent of the Appalachians rise just to the west of the town. The doctor records having treated members of the Wait family including Benjamin's wife (Martha, d. April 3, 1804), Ezra, Thomas, and Gilbert. The family names of the community are listed, making this a good source for early settlement history and genealogical research. Among the householders who required the doctor's services are Smolly, Skinner, Taylor, Spalding, Hitchcock, Parkhurst, Carpenter (the family had a tannery and potash works), Heaton, Burdick, Johnson, Rider, Fuller, Symonds, McNight, Chamberlain, Atherton, Lyon, Butterfield, Barnave, Osgood, Foster, Hobson, Robinson, Brun, Latimer, and Sherman. Many of the names appear often.
