Additionally, the book features information on cartridges, loading tools, and rarity scales, making it an essential resource for enthusiasts of historical firearms.

Exploring the intersection of film and reality, Joel Black examines how the cinematic impulse to document life influences our perception of authenticity. He argues that this desire to capture every moment has blurred the lines between reality and fiction, resulting in a world where life feels more graphic yet less genuine. Through comparative analyses of films and real-life events, such as "Lolita" and the JonBenet Ramsey case, Black highlights the profound impact of cinema on societal narratives and individual experiences.

Featuring over 1400 images, the book presents extensive research on the Webley RIC, MP, and No. 5 revolvers, showcasing previously unpublished examples. It delves into Webley production from 1864 to 1938, highlighting early models and their varied frame sources. Additionally, it discusses police purchases before the RIC models, military acquisitions of solid frame revolvers, and includes displays of loading tools, cartridges, and a 1903 catalog. This comprehensive resource is essential for firearms collectors and dealers.
