Originally published in 1964 in the USSR, and subsequently translated to English by the US Defense Department, this book is still one of the most frequently cited pyrotechnic references. It contains a wealth of information on both civilian and military pyrotechnic and fireworks devices. This new third edition, published in 1997, has been called "the single best scientific text currently in print on the chemistry of pyrotechnics...an absolute must for anyone wanting to take a scientific approach to pyrotechnics" in a recent review. This is a book for advanced or scientifically inclined fire workers. New and extensive index, 272 pages, soft cover. Shipping weight 2 lbs.
