1889 Secretary of War Ordnance Report

Volume 7 in the House Executive Documents, 1889-1890. This volume covers the Ordnance activities in the year 1889 to include weapons testing and development, building construction, supply issuance etc. INCREDIBLE detail in this nearly 3" thick, 6" x 9" book. Condition is poor with the spine and leather covers unattached. Contents are VG+ and the many pull-out ordnance diagrams etc. are well worth the price of admission. Outstanding late 19th Century reference.
