I received the first copy of Lessons in Armed America. Yeah that was me right at the end of hour two but due to technical difficulties I was cut off. Here's what I wrote Mark about it.
Mark,
Thanks for the opportunity call the show and talk about yours and Kathy's book Lessons from Armed America. Sorry I dropped off the line and wasn't able to give you my thoughts on the book. So here goes...
I think I can effectively describe the book in one word...Wow! Your stories of the real life defensive encounters of ordinary people really brings to light that bad things do happen to good people. But those who have prepared themselves for that reality can and will survive.
Kathy's break down of the complex legal, physiological and psychological aspects of self defense are made easy to understand. And with great emphasis on the importance of training your brain with "software" in addition to the hardware in your holster
Bottom line;
- Anyone who is thinking about or on the fence about concealed carry needs to read this book Right now
- Anyone who is experienced with self defense or concealed carry needs to read this book frequently
- Any concealed instructor who doesn't mention this book to his or her students is doing them a great disservice and needs to start.
I am proud to add Lessons from Armed America to my library right next to my books and videos by Mas Ayoob, Clint Smith, Tiger McKee and Chris Bird. This book easily stands shoulder-to-shoulder with them.
Thanks
