I'm looking for a good book on John M. Browning
and his life. Can't seem to find one so I will leave
it up to the best board on the web!!!!

Check Browning Arms Co.'s website, they used to have just the book you are looking for. If not try Amazon.

My Gosh! A 'Google' of "John M. Browning Bibliography" turns up 174,000 references. I wrote one of my college research papers on John M. Browning and just from the little University of Nevada, Reno library I almost couldn't carry out the door in one trip all the books offered. The best IMHO is his own Bibliography which is unfortunately out of print right now. I have 'lost' my copy of it to some forgotten 'borrower'. :-(

My advice is to haunt all the Used Book Stores available to you until you find a copy. There is a famous 'used book store' on Harvard Square, Cambridge, MA that undoubtedly has it. Sorry, I've forgotten the name of the place. It was a long time ago that I was there. ............. Big Cholla

Well Forget That! It is the "Harvard Book Store" and they don't have a single book reference to old John M. Either that or their 'search' function and I just don't use the same terminology. ....... Big Cholla

You want to get "John M. Browning: American Gunmaker" by John Browning and Curt Gentry. GREAT book.

Last printing was in 1994, scarce but not rare. Keep an eye on eBay and Amazon.

Just looked: There is one used copy on Amazon right now for just $3 over cover price.

I just googled it and there are other sites with it in stock as well.

+10, That is the book I have and never felt the need to buy another.

Excellent book; a relatively quick read, but well worth it.

thanks everyone for your time....
