Title: Arming America:The Origins of a National Gun Culture
Review: In a very short time I was able to see that the research that the author conducted was flawed. I researched the Mayflower ship records and I came up with an entirely different view of our American forefathers. They depended on the gun for food, defense, and entertainment. Paintings of the day show Americans with the weapons of the day in prominant views whether they are outdoors or indoors. The militias of the Revolutionary War were instumental in keeping the British Armies out of the South and it was the guns in the hands of the civilian population that sparked the Whisky Rebellion. Muskets were used in warfare at the time, however the rifle and the shotgun were the guns over the mantel piece. Using this book as a research tool would be a waste of time and genuine scholars would do better to read the dairies of the men and woman of the era.
