I spotted this book in the bargain section and I must admit I was drawn to the cover of a well dressed couple holding guns with their young child in superman pajamas. I think this book brings the voyer in us. In some respects guns and owernship is still taboo to some people. This books shows a nice cross section of America posing with their favorite guns. The pictures are taken in their homes and usually include their pets as well. There are a few sentences on their thoughts related to guns. I'm surprised how many peple have guns that are more attuned to personal/home defense than to hunting. Perhaps a reflection on our society that is not readily apparent. Either way I like the book. I found it quite interesting. While it's more of a skimming book that a read I believe the gun enthusiast as well as the non enthusiast would like it.

As the 2004 Presidential Election was beginning to take shape, Kyle Cassidy took note of the important role the simple concept of gun ownership was playing. Hardly anyone he knew didn't have an opinion in the debate over owning guns. Why was a constitutionally protected right so heavily debated, and who exactly as these folks that own guns? "I began to wonder who these seventy or so million Americans were, how they lived and what was important to them. I set out to photographs as many gun owners as I could and ask them one question: "Why do you own a gun."" Cassidy traveled over 20,000 miles, crisscrossing the country to meet with gun owners in their homes. Cassidy's photo essays create a powerful, thought provoking and sometimes startling view of gun ownership in the U.S. These "everyman" portraits, and the accompanying views of gun owners, fashion a riveting and provocative hardcover book.
