Just picked up Patrick Sweeney's new book 100 years of the 1911. Very good, excellent detail and pictures. If you like 1911's or gun history you should get it. Amazon has it for cheap.
The section on current master gunsmiths is very good. It is followed by a chapter on modern military usage of 1911's. His brief discussion of the current USMC 1911's, commonly known as MEU (SOC) 1911's, left a lot out and had several incorrect statements. Hopefully he got it right about Deltas use of 1911's but I wouldn't know for sure. Other than that it is very good.
