Phil sent me a copy of his extensive work " Renowned Gun Leather " as a prize for guessing a maker. To say I'm impressed is an understatement.
I have Phil's permission to include the photo of his cover below, he copywrited his work which was a smart move. The spiral bound book includes numerous color photographs and is packed with solid and useable information-topics include history, renowned makers, terminology, holster values and how to tell what a holster fits.
One of the things I enjoyed most when reading Elmer Keith's books as a youngster was how much his love of what he wrote about shined through. Phil's book shows the same enthusiasm for his subject-he knows what he's writing about and he cares about it.
I'm still working my way through it, it's 65 pages long. I don't know what his plans are for making this available, I hope he has such plans, but I'm awfully glad I have a copy. Thank you, Phil, for writing this and for letting me enjoy it.
Regards,
