SUMMARY:Dominic Erdozain at The NewSouth Bookstore Thursday\, May 16 at 5:30pm!
DESCRIPTION:Historian Dominic Erdozain’s “brilliant and gut-wrenching” (NYTimes) takedown of American gun culture is a new book and the subject of the talk he will give at The NewSouth Bookstore on Thursday\, May 16 at 5:30pm. We are so fortunate to have Erdozain — a graduate of Oxford and Cambridge\, currently a visiting professor at Emory University — stop at the store with his newly released One Nation Under Guns: How Gun Culture Distorts Our History and Threatens Our Democracy\, which one critic says “goes wide and deep on the critical issues.” This is going to be a fascinating program. Don’t miss it.
