There are more books written about the M-1911 pistol than any other firearm in the world. A kind visitor noted the absence of such a reference in the M1911.ORG, so I've got involved in an effort to collect information about publications dealing with this pistol. Living outside USA, makes such an endeavor quite cumbersome though, as these titles are usually unavailable in Greece, imported only seldomly. Here is what I have collected so far.

If the book title is a link (in blue letters and underline), you may click on it, to read a review of that book. The review will open in a new browser window. Close it to return here.
