Learn moreGun-rights advocate John Lott, author of More Guns, Less Crime, rebuts recent antigun “factoids” with real statistics.
When it comes to the gun control debate, there are two kinds of data: data that’s accurate, and data that left-wing billionaires, politicians, and media want you to believe is accurate. In The War on Guns, economist and gun-rights advocate John Lott turns a skeptical eye to well-funded antigun studies and stories that perpetuate false statistics to frighten Americans into giving up their guns.
John R. Lott Jr. received his PhD in economics from UCLA in 1984. He has held positions at the University of Chicago, Yale University, Stanford, UCLA, Wharton, and Rice. He is the author of The Bias against Guns and the bestselling More Guns, Less Crime and has published numerous articles in academic journals.
John McLain is an actor, professional voice talent, and Earphones Award–winning narrator. He has been a finalist for the prestigious Audie Award for best narration. On stage, he has appeared in The Sound of Music, My Fair Lady, Amahl & the Night Visitors, and The Music Man.
Reviews
“For anyone looking to be armed with the truth about guns, I highly recommend that you add this book to your arsenal.”
“The reader will find well-documented all the data, statistics, practical, legal, and moral arguments one will ever need to support the natural right to self-defense.”
“Lott deals with a wide variety of claims that question the value of firearms for self-defense, providing the analysis and facts the public needs to see through the distortions of gun control advocates. This is a valuable guide to a more balanced understanding of the issue.”
