I'm looking for a good book or two that discusses the correlation between freedom and the a civilian's right to own weapons (more specifically, firearms, but if the book does not focus on firearms that's OK).

Guns, Crime, and Freedom - available from the NRA. I'm sure there are others. Good luck with your search and let us know what you find.

You may want to check out the monthly reloading magazine that Dillon Reloading puts out called 'The Blue Press'. They usually review books that analyze the Constitution, Bill of Rights, and research done by economists, physicians, etc.. in relation to gun ownership. There was a review in last month's issue of a book about the positive economic influence that gun ownership and useage has in our society. They offer several titles of positive reviewed books for sale.
