Condition: New
A provocative history that reveals how guns-not abortion, race, or religion-are at the heart of America's cultural divide. Gunfight is a timely work examining Americas four-centuries-long political battle over gun control and the right to bear arms. In this definitive and provocative history, Adam Winkler reveals how guns-not abortion, race, or religion-are at the heart of Americas cultural divide. Using the landmark 2008 case District of Columbia v. Heller-which invalidated a law banning handguns in the nations capital-as a springboard, Winkler brilliantly weaves together the dramatic stories of gun-rights advocates and gun-control lobbyists, providing often unexpected insights into the venomous debate that now cleaves our nation. 20 illustrations
