Stephen P. Halbrook's The Founders' Second Amendment is the first book-length account of the origins of the Second Amendment; based on the Founders' own statements as found in newspapers; correspondence; debates; and resolutions. Mr. Halbrook investigates the period from 1768 to 1826; from the last years of British rule and the American Revolution through to the adoption of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights; and the passing of the Founders' generation. His book offers the most comprehensive analysis of the arguments behind the drafting and adoption of the Second Amendment; and the intentions of the men who created it.
