Armed in America

This legal history explores the evolving interpretation of the right to bear arms in America, tracing its roots from English and colonial law to modern debates. Scholars reveal how the meaning and legal protections of this right have transformed over centuries, shifting from resistance to civic republicanism and eventually to individual rights. The book also examines the rise of the gun-rights movement and offers listeners a balanced, informed perspective on the historical and legal developments shaping today's gun debate.
