Nice, easy to read about the history of the most famous pistol ever : Glock. Some history, some facts, some reports this book is a fun to read.

As an Engineer myself, I have long been aware of the accomplishments of Gaston Glock, inventor of the most recognisable handgun in history. I wasn't quite prepared for the level of detail in this book, and really enjoyed learning about this incredible journey from before the conception to modern day. You most certainly don't need to be a fan of firearms to enjoy this book (my partner raced through it, despite a lifelong avoidance of any type of firearm). The story is quite incredible for many reasons and really highlights a lot of truths that are often overshadowed by politics and jumping the gun (pun intended). There are plenty of laugh out loud moments, as well as knuckle biting and genuine shock at how certain situations panned out. Whether you have a passion for firearms, business or simply an amazing story, you won't be disappointed with this one.

I purchased this book as a gift for a friend who is a firearms collector. He enjoyed it immensely.
