It's not about Winston Churchill but about Robert Churchill, an avid sportsman and one of the great gunmakers of London. It is also a fascinating account of how forensic ballistics can be used to solve crimes and convict criminals or set non-criminals free. Robert Churchill was an expert witness in many famous criminal cases.Robert Churchill almost single-handedly developed the science of forensic ballistics, tying a specific gun to a bullet fired from it. This book, by Macdonald Hastings tells the story of Churchill's life and traces the advances in ballistics. It formed the basis of a fascinating TV series in the 1960s. It is well-written by an author who understands the subject well and brings the subject to life. If you have an interest in forensics or ballistics this is recommended as a very good read.
