Descripción de contraportada

"Uviller and Merkel offer a very valuable legal history of the militia and its relationship to the standing army. That history is the heart of this book, as their reading of the Second Amendment grows directly out of it. I have read accounts of these events dozens of times, but this one may be the best of all. It covers an enormous amount of ground in an astonishingly short space, in glorious prose, with a narrative flow that pulls the whole story together and sweeps the reader along."--David C. Williams, Indiana University School of Law
