Description for The Last Gun
Hardcover.
Tom Diaz's first book, Making a Killing (The New Press, 1999), is widely considered to be the most influential anti-gun book ever written. It helped to spark a national media campaign around the machinations of the gun industry and the wave of violence it spawned. Picking up where Making a Killing left off, The Last Gun looks at how the gun industry has changed in the intervening decade, how gun violence has changed in step with industry trends and why the time is ripe for a new political effort to attack gun violence at its source: the guns themselves.
