The breech loading shotgun would have been no use without its cartridges. Much has already been written about the histories of shotguns, but very little about the many cartridges that were loaded into the breeches. This book contains drawings of a large number of examples of cartridges and cartridge firms, many of which have not appeared in Ken's previous titles. It is a companion to the previous works which collectively offer a record of Ken's extensive drawings detailing the history of shotgun cartridges. It should bring back much nostalgia to many older shooting folk.

As he walked out of the cinema, Gavin knew that his life would change forever. It was the impact of a documentary that kicked him into action, whereby he decided to lower his family's impact on the planet, in the attempt to live a more sustainable lifestyle. This is the story of his first year of 'The Greening of Gavin'. Gavin's philosophy is a simple one and he describes it as this; "An Ordinary Australian Man Who Has A Green Epiphany Whilst Watching A Documentary, Gets a Hybrid Car, Plants A Large Organic Vegetable Garden, Goes Totally Solar, Lowers Consumption, Feeds Composts Bins and Worms, Harvests Rainwater, Raises Chickens, Makes Cheese and Soap, and Eats Locally. All In The Effort To Reduce Our Family's Carbon Footprint So We Can Start Making A Difference For Our Children & Future Generations To Come."
The Atari VCS (2600), 5200, 7800, Mattel Intellivision, Coleco Colecovision and Milton Bradley Microvision. Collecting Cartridges is much more than a book, for many it's a passion - likely the closest thing to a time machine to our childhoods and a period of time where video game consoles were a completely new concept. It's technology that demands a fascination, not just by those of us that lived it, but by future generations who wish to enjoy part of this very unique period of time.This guide is a work of love. It came about through the lack of any other detailed price guide that was really reflective of what classic video games, in similar conditions, were selling for. The information took years to compile, but became a personal resource being referenced regularly. There was no reason that if one person found it helpful, many others might as well.The layout of this guide is extremely simple to reference. It explains, through words and pictures, how to categorize any particular game title by its condition. The game titles are then broken down by console, publisher and name. Each title generally has multiple conditions reflective of what the same game would be bought and sold for. Most important is the fact that these prices are, in no way, arbitrary. The prices are an average of each title's actual selling price. Formulas are used to fill in the value of each game under varying conditions.Great care has also been provided to reference the author(s) of each game. These designers were the proverbial 'rock stars' of the day. Part of the enjoyment of collecting is getting to know each programmer and their library of work. This guide contains an appendix which provides a very thorough cross reference.Along with historical information on each console and adding a few fond memories, this guide should be a part of any classic gamer's library."Don't pay too much or accept too little. If you have anything to do with classic video game systems, you need this guide. This is the most accurate way of determining a game's value."
