 Great photos of real people! April 29, 2008
Awesome idea! Everyone should buy this book! Very well written and excellent topic. The author did a fine job photographing people in various their homes. It really opens your eyes to gun ownership and makes you realize that not just criminals own them. The author even has gun owners reasons as to why they own firearms.

The Second Amendment is about family. Community. Freedom. And having the means to preserve and defend them all.

In a sporting goods store I watched as a man and his schoolage daughter examined all sorts of little black knives, before he reluctantly put the last knife down and told her, "Come on, we're gonna go look at guns."
"Guns! Guns!" she sang happily as she skipped off with her Dad.
The salesman and I stared bemusedly after them, and laughed when I said, "God bless America."
I keep this book in my waiting room and get feedback that is almost all good, except for a disturbed look from one non-gun-owner. Just big pictures of people posing in their own homes with their gun, one or many.
On each facing page appears a quote about why they feel they should have a gun. The combination of the candid photo and the equally revealing comments displays the whole diversity of our culture. There are scary looking people I'd not like to run into, especially now that I know they're armed. On the other extreme there's the gentleman who said, "As a Jewish American I am cognizant of the fact that 6 million of my people went into air pollution in the 30's and 40's...It's hypocritical to deny someone the most basic of human rights, which is the right to defend youself." Interesting book.

An interesting collection of candid photographs of Gun owners and their families and guns.
A nice coffee table book for killing a little time. Not a book I would find myself refering to after the first read.
Could be informative in showing non-shooters that "normal" people own guns too.

This is a fabulous book full of nothing but pictures with short captions which portray Americans across the country. It's on our coffee table and is getting rave reviews from all who look at it. The photography is excellent too. I recommend it to everybody, whether you like guns or not.
