I have a book called -- Shooting To Live, written by Capt. W.E. Fairbairn and Capt. E.A. Sykes.
Copywrite 1987 by Paladin press, a division of Paladin Enterprises, Inc. P.O. Box 1307 Boulder, Colorado 80306, USA.
Shooting to Live describes methods developed and practised during an eventful quarter of a century and adopted, in spite of their unorthodoxy, by one police organisation after another in the Far East and elsewhere. It is the authors' hope that their relation of these methods may contribute to the efficiency, and therefore safety, of those whose lot it is to use the one-hand gun in the course of duty.
A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER
The toughest city in the world was Shanghai. The time was the 1930s. The streets were ruled by gangs. Violent gang wars, murder, rape, and robbery were the order of the day. The night belonged to roaming gangs of toughs. In charge of the Shanghai municipal Police, Capt. W.E. Fairbairn and his partner, Capt Eric Anthony Sykes were determined to reclaim the streets of the citizenry.
Shooting to Live is the product of Fairbairn's and Syke's practical experience with the handgun. Hundreds of incidents provided the basis for the first true book on life-or-death shootouts with the pistol. Shooting to Live teaches, in clear, concise terms, all concepts, considerations, and applications of combat pistolcraft. The methods taught here provided the basis for all the later masters -- Applegate, Weaver, Cooper, Taylor, Chapman, Farnham, Hackathorn, et al. This all-time classic book on combat pistol shooting is a must for the serious shooter.

1 Kings 14:24
Nevertheless for David's sake did the Lord his God give him a lamp in Jerusalem, to set up his son after him, and to establish Jerusalem: Because David did that which was right in the eyes of the Lord, and turned not aside from any thing that he commanded him all the days of his life, save only the matter of Uriah the Hittite.
