Samuel Colt

Arms, Art, and Invention

By: Herbert G. Houze,Carolyn C. Cooper,Elizabeth Mankin Kornhauser

The fascinating story of the American inventor and manufacturer who perfected the revolver Samuel Colt (1814-1862) first patented his "Colt" revolver in 1835 and thereby redefined the architecture of handguns. This stunning book is the first to present in detail the evolution of his most famous invention and to document the unsurpassed Colt firearms collections held by the Wadsworth Atheneum. Colt designed his revolvers with an artistic sensibility--paying particular attention to form and beauty and juxtaposing colors and finishes to heighten the visual effects. He was also one of the first American manufacturers to secure celebrity endorsements and to commission paintings by renowned artists like George Catlin to promote his arms. Colt's standards for excellence, industrial foresight, and quest for market domination are explored in light of primary documents that reveal his constant battles to protect his patents. Essays discuss Colt's personal collection of historic firearms as well as the memorial collection of Colt-manufactured firearms, the relationship between art and commerce as they pertain to the inventor's career, and his international celebrity. Richly illustrated and beautifully produced, this volume presents the artistry of the firearms that Colt worked so diligently to perfect--as well as his promotional abilities that made a tremendous impact on American culture.

Artists in Dylan Thomas's Prose Works

Adam Naming and Aesop Fabling

By: Ann Elizabeth Mayer

Annotation Applying contemporary critical theory to Thomas's prose works, Mayer (English, U. of Western Ontario) illuminates the author's continual exploration of his own writing process. She studies the artist figures in and, to reveal his changing conceptions of language, his relationship to his modernist peers, and how he linked his poetry and prose by blending lyric and narrative strategies. The analyses investigate often neglected work, and progress beyond the New Critical approaches dominating Thomas scholarship. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
