"Recreating the 18th Century Powder Horn"

[FearNot]

Track of the Wolf sent out my copy of "Recreating the 18th Century Powder Horn" yesterday. Can't wait to get it. Has anyone had a chance to look at this book yet? What are your thoughts about it?

Haven't seen it or heard of it , but I'm Very INTERESTED in getting my hands on one. Where do I look to find a copy? Does Track have a mailing list?, I have bought from them in the past. Any details would be appreciated.
Thanks ; Soggy

I think this is Scott Sibley's book. It available from Track's website.

Yep... that where I ordered my copy. It came out March 19th. I was sent a pre-arrival order opportunity that I took advantage of. The couple of pictures showing on TOW's site look VERY interesting.

Just got off the phone to TOW; it's on it's way (along with a couple of other little goodies :: ) Looks like next winters projects are going to get started a little early. :crackup:

Not sure if this is the proper place to post this ... I got it off another site. Thought you all might enjoy reading this and showing your wife in defense of your next purchase

An auction gallery in Thomston Maine (about 30 minutes from my home) just sold an F&I powder horn for $31,100.00. The horn was engraved with scenes of Fort St. Frederck and Citadel at Crown Point.

:nono:

:hmm: WOW! that would be about $ 37,320.00 Canadian. :: Yeah she'd like that :crackup: I would imagine that the art work on that horn was a "little" better than what I'll be turning out.
Was there any pictures of the horn?

Soggy :thumbsup:

 

Just got an email from Track letting me know that my copy was on the way shortly. Looking forward to it, look for a review in the June issue of Buckskinner!

Looks fantastic!
