    Very big gun indeed! :D I'm very glad I didn't live in those times, it must have been awful.

    More very interesting fotos, Dooley. The dresses and men's clothing are interesting to see. Interesting too are the canons and long rifles.
    What kind of flag is that in the seconf pic from the top?
