PUBLISHING

The Manual of Arms Publishing is looking for Americana, and military collectors interested in having their collections published. Our first book, “Union and Confederate Civil War Headgear,” is an example of what is intended to be a series focusing on “Distinctive Private Collections.” This series will cover a broad spectrum of Americana, and American military–related subject matter.

In some cases, the merging of more than one private collection on a given topic is being considered.

If you are interested in participating in this publishing effort, we encourage you to contact us for details and further discussion.
