ABOUT THE BOOK

In Gun Control on Trial, journalist Brian Doherty tells the full story

behind the landmark District of Columbia v. Heller ruling. With

exclusive, behind the scenes access throughout the case, Doherty delved

into the issues of this monumental case to provide a compelling look at

the inside stories, including:

* The plaintiffs’ fight for the right to protect themselves and

their families from violent neighborhoods.

* The activist lawyers who worked exhaustively to affirm that

right.

* The city officials who fought any attempt to give citizens the

right to self-defense.

The story of the Heller case stretches back to long before the decision

struck down D.C.’s restrictive gun ban and forward to the future of the

political and legal battle over gun control in America. Doherty provides

clear, concise explanations of the issues and battles that have driven

the gun control debate for decades, detailing how the Heller decision is

a new starting point for the gun control debate as it passionately and

energetically continues in the years ahead.

Author Brian Doherty is a senior editor at Reason magazine and the

author of two books, including Radicals for Capitalism: A Freewheeling

History of the Modern American Libertarian Movement. His articles have

appeared in dozens of national publications, and he has appeared as a

commentator and analyst on hundreds of TV and radio programs.
