Tom Swift and His Giant Cannon, or, The Longest Shots on Record, is Volume 16 in the original Tom Swift novel series published by Grosset & Dunlap.

The story opens with a discussion between Barton Swift and an old friend, Alec Peterson. Alec is trying to convince Mr. Swift to finance an expedition to locate a hidden opal mine, but Mr. Swift is reluctant. In the middle of the conversation, Tom is flying one of his airships, but gets tangled up in power lines. Mr. Peterson cuts the wires, saving Tom's life. Tom is so grateful to Mr. Peterson that Tom is willing to finance the expedition himself.

In the meanwhile, the story segues to Tom's next invention, a cannon bigger than any that has been built to date. Tom hopes to sell his invention to the United States government, for use in protecting the Panama Canal, which was still under active construction at the time of the story.

The cannon Tom invents is the largest gun to date. Measuring 100 feet in length, it has a 30-inch caliber, and Tom estimates he can launch a 2 ton projectile 30 miles.

Great for everyday use
We use these daily. I buy the complete set then boxes of each to refill. Very sturdy utensils. Size is perfect. Very easy to clean to use after dinner for deserts. Knives work very well and fork ends are sharp enough to stick in your food to eat. Only brand we use now.

Great quality!
These are every bit as good as the more expensive plastic ware. They’re thick and sturdy. I particularly like the cutouts in the handle. They’re easier for me to grip and keep ahold of. Extremely happy with this purchase.

Great product

Title: Good product, worth buying “I’m happy with this purchase. The product arrived on time and was easy to use. The quality is good for the price, and it works as expected. I’ve been using it for a few days and haven’t had any major issues. There are a couple of small things that could be improved, but overall it does the job well. I would recommend it to others looking for a reliable option.”

A must have for great tasting water
Style: Standard, Size: 6
These Brita filters are a staple in my house. They’re super easy to swap out and start working right away. The difference in water taste is noticeable—no more chlorine or odd aftertaste, just clean, fresh water. I love buying the multi-pack because it lasts for months and saves me from constantly reordering. Each filter holds up well and keeps the water consistently tasting great. It’s also a great alternative to bottled water, which saves money and cuts down on plastic use. Simple, reliable, and totally worth it!

Fast, quality filtration
Style: Standard, Size: 3 Count
Bought these for our Brita pitcher. Three in a pack is a good number for the price. They fit perfectly, as they should. No issues with leaking or clogging. We have pretty good water anyway but it's nice to run it through one more thing just to make sure. These work very quickly, especially compared to how I remember Britas working when I was a kid.
