Alexander Henry Book?
      #297574 - 23/03/17 02:13 AM

Are there any good books covering the guns and history of Alexander Henry? I would love to learn more about him. Thank you.

The Winfer book is about all I can think of.

(Didn't want to put this up in every sub-forum, as a newbie ... but since you ask ...)

This will be an exceptional book, with loads of previously unknown details, as least in part from material I have in my possession, as Alexander Henry's great great grandson.
