State Laws and the lost National Right to Carry. (26)
Just how many groups are exempt from firearms laws? Here's the complete federal list with cross-references. (29)
One of the surprising conclusions from all the research: The gun laws are generally excellent. (33)
The legal numbering system is designed to bamboozle! Demystify the whole thing in a few light-hearted pages. Find out what "§" is and how to write one (55)
The entire hierarchical structure of federal law in a chart, from the Constitution to subparagraph (A)(i)(I). (59)
The nearly unknown, hidden away Statutes at Large. (73)
So what exactly is the Militia? It's described by law—and it's definitely not private musters of rural citizens. (85)

Posse Comitatus. It's in the headlines—should the Army enforce civilian law? See what the law says. (211)
Feds can wiretap for gun crimes—plus 2-1/2 pages of other things right down to criminal mischief—and they want more. See if you think they could use more. (220)
It may come as a surprise, but, world peace and global disarmament is the official policy of the United States. (249)
Isn't the Militia the National Guard? See what the National Guard actually is and decide for yourself. (292)
The worst English syntax on the books (my opinion). (302)

Working with American Express, Mr. Korwin wrote the executive-level strategic plan that defined its worldwide telecommunications strategy for the 1990s; he wrote the business plan that raised $5 million in venture capital and launched SkyMall; he did the publicity for Pulitzer Prize cartoonist Steve Benson’s fourth book; and he had a hand in developing ASPED, Arizona’s economic strategic plan. Korwin’s writing appears often in a wide spectrum of local and national publications.
Korwin turned his first book, The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide, into a self-published best-seller, now in its 20th edition. With his wife Cheryl he operates Bloomfield Press, which has grown into the largest producer and distributor of gun-law books in the country. It is built around six books he has completed on the subject including the unabridged guide Gun Laws of America, an expanding line of related items, and countless radio and TV appearances. Supreme Court Gun Cases is his 10th book.
Alan Korwin is originally from New York City, where his clients included IBM, AT&T, NYNEX and others, many with real names. He is a pretty good guitarist and singer, with a penchant for parody (his last band was The Cartridge Family). In 1986, finally married, he moved to the Valley of the Sun. It was a joyful and successful move.
