Developed late in World War I to be a fearsome trench-warfare weapon, the Thompson submachine gun's fame and success came in unexpected quarters. An iconic and innovative design, the M1921 Thompson was soon adopted by Prohibition-era gangs and used ruthlessly on the streets of New York and Chicago. In the 1930s the Thompson was more often seen on Hollywood sets than on Chicago streets, but its military career was relaunched with the outbreak of World War II. Simplified to become the M1 Thompson and produced in huge numbers, it was used by armies, commandos and resistance groups worldwide. Using expert knowledge and first-hand accounts, this history of one of the world's greatest submachine guns analyzes the Thompson's development, its legacy and the experiences of the men who used it in combat.
