I am a gun owner and was interested in reading about how the AR-15
came to be. So I got a book called "The American Gun, the story of
the AR-15".
Good thing I picked it up at the library instead of reading the
glowing reviews on Amazon (although there were some real reviews
rated at 1 star, most of them were glowing).
Within reading the prologue, I could tell this book was written by
people who want to ban guns. The first part follows how Eugene
Stoner came up with the weapon. The last 2/3rds are devoted to
hysterical liberals who want to ban the bad things. One of the 1
star reviews notes that "the writing is so slanted, they were
suprised it didn't slide off the table when they set it down."
If I would have went by the reviews and purchased this because I
wanted to know more about the AR-15, it would have been a waste of
money due to the liberal slant of the writers.
Have a great day!
