The Preparatory Manual of Black Powder and Pyrotechnics version 4.0 Volume 1: Methods of forming pyrotechnic compositions I

This two part volume is not a detailed how-to-make guide for the amateur DIY blackpowder enthusiast. It is a guide for someone with a lot of experience mixing up some very dangerous chemistry, and for someone who has access to the chemicals required to mix all variety of black powder for small arms, mortars, and cannons; rocket motors for everything from model rockets to solid rocket boosters to anti tank guided missiles and MANPADS. It won't tell you exact manufacturing methods, but for someone in the chemical propellants industry, this is likely intended to be a reference guide. Buy it and you'll likely be on an FBI or ATF watch list.

EXCELLENT...

Enormous collection of recipes and formulaevfor things that burn or explode, fireworks, propellants, flares, etc.

Little bit hard to understand . Need to read it over again ? HATE to remove my fingers!!
