Introduction

The fight over guns in the United States seems to have reached a fever pitch.

With every mass shooting, the cry for gun control grows louder and the assertion of Second Amendment rights grows angrier.

Legal scholar Adam Winkler is here to anger people on both sides of the gun debate even further.

Published in 2011, Gunfight: The Battle to Bear Arms in America is an extraordinary and balanced examination of America's historical relationship with guns and their regulation.

Told through the lens of a 2008 Supreme Court case that shifted precedent on the gun rights argument, Winkler blends the history of gun laws with the evolution of gun control from the British colonial era through the early 21st century.
