The Right to Bear Arms
Individual Rights and Civic Responsibility
This book provides YA readers with a rich historical description and balanced analysis of America's complex and controversial Second Amendment. The book traces how arms themselves, their use, and their role in society have changed over the centuries. The evolving views of government, the courts, and the American people themselves--both for and against gun control--are examined, as well as the impact of guns on today's youth.
