I have written and edited a large new section for the forthcoming book "Purdey's: The Guns and the Family'. Originally published in 1984 as a history of 'Purdey' the renowned and venerable Mayfair gunmakers, by the late Richard Beaumont, this book will soon be republished, appended with a new section covering the years 1984 - present, during which the company has undergone immense challenges and changes, but has continued to flourish. The newly released and updated hardback will be published in early 2019.
