Reviews

Firepower is the best scholarly analysis of the National Rifle Association (NRA) yet published .... [Lacombe] effectively argues that the NRA has long been political, but that the form of its politics changed from its quasi-governmental phase (pre-1970s) to its partisan phase (1970s onward) .... Anyone interested in the NRA and gun politics today should read this book. * Choice * Lacombe's book is a worthy read because it provides a new lens through which to view the NRA and the development of the gun rights movement more broadly. Its reorientation of the discussion from material and partisan to psychological processes makes Firepower an important addition to any syllabus on gun politics and interest group politics. ---Alexandra Filindra, Perspectives on Politics
