the DIYer

A good look into history, but slanted.

Revisado: 06-11-24

This author tries to claim very early on that this is an unbiased read, but it is very clear throughout the book, the left lean that they try to not convey. When he speaks of his reading and understanding of historical writings and law, he then force feeds his interpretations using the voice of the original writer (Jefferson, Maddison etc.) but with a liberal stance. As the book progresses and especially, as noted by another reader, the final chapter, it is very clear how this author feels in the issue of "gun control". I do recommend this book for both those who want stricter gun laws but also those who wish the freedoms we have. It is good to understand where we come from, but please keep in mind the leftist views of this author. I also recommend "The Violence Project" by Jillian Peterson and James Densely.

good read but inflammatory.

Revisado: 05-30-24

I dislike this writer's use of derogatory terms to his opposition. His message is very clear without those derogatory statements and "threat" talk. I belive that he needs to be less inflammatory about his writing because you will never get those on the "fence" to acknowledge your facts as facts, for that reason. this is a good description of what is happening to the United States. it was interesting to learn about Bernie Sander's opinion of firearms.

awful book

Revisado: 09-09-23

I understand what the author is conferring to the reader (listener). However, making paragraphs cherry picked from statements from our founders does not truly tell the reader what the founders meant to say. This is no better than what the opposition does, which is cherry picking to make their point. I appreciate the authors sentiment and agree, however, this book is horribly written and is nothing more than, quote after quote after quote, which is not only awful to listen to, but also requires no talent as a writer.

Great Leader

Revisado: 02-28-22

This great leader was part of my inspiration for joining the Army of this great nation. Hearing his story, especially from his own voice, is awesome. I only wish I could have been in the service under his command. This is a very well well written book. I recommend it to everyone, not just those who want to know about military history, or war heroes. It sets a precedent for how Americans should be, especially the last chapter....
