JimFromFL Posted March 5, 2004 Report Share Posted March 5, 2004 The Gun That Made the Twenties Roar by William J. Helmer. is a very good book for information about the History of the Thompson and how it came about. The Thompson the American Legend and American Thunder not only cover the history but also the workings of the Thompson. I guess you could say these two are more technical then the first. Either way you look at it, they are all great books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
