440 centerfire cartridges illustrated and described from 4 bore (1inch) down to 297/.230 Morris, along with 33 double- and single-shot rifles, 16 loading tools, and the box, packet and tropical tin labels.

With the book comes a separate 24-page, 8 1/2x11" supplement in full color illustrating 83 British rifle cartridge boxes, packets and tropical tins, actual size, along with a number of British single shot and double-barrel rifles, also in color. This collection was discovered after publication of the book.
