Reviews with the most likes.
The book is a timely and informative discussion of the origins and meaning of the 2nd Amendment to the US Constitution as well as a survey of the changing attitudes in America (and on the Supreme Court) toward gun ownership.
I wish it contained a road map in addition to the lessons learned, however. Where do we go from here?
