Michael Conti has written a thorough and very informative text on handguns and their tactical applications. While many handgun books are heavy on the "tactical" side and seem biased towards military and law enforcement, "Line of Fire" is written so that the average handgun owner will find it useful and not overly complicated. Another plus is the extensive coverage of revolvers, which while out of favor in the police world remain very popular among civilians. If you need a quality book to reinforce good habits and teach new ones, take a long look at "In the Line of Fire". My only complaint is the size - it's large, thin, and easy to beat up. For manuals that will probably spend some time in a range bag, I much prefer the 8"x5" size.
