Thunder in the Mountains: A Portrait of American Gun Culture

Craig K. Collins

4.9/5 (24731 ratings)

Description:In this beautifully written and powerful memoir, author Craig K. Collins leads the reader down a remarkable path -- one that wends from the founding of America to present-day suburbia. Along the way he explores the meaning of a history – of his family’s and his country’s – that is infused with the culture of the gun. Stops along the way include an Indian massacre at Bad Axe, the siege of Vicksburg, the slaughter of buffalo in Montana and the discovery of gold in a remote Nevada canyon. The story begins on a hunting trip Collins took with his father and brothers in the early ‘70s, when he was shot with a high-powered deer rifle at the age of 13 near the top of an isolated peak in northeastern Nevada. He tells a personal story of a childhood in Idaho and Northern Nevada, where hunting is a way of life and guns are revered – often with fatal and unintended results. He recalls friends – past and present – whose lives have been forever shattered or altered by the explosive force of a bullet. We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
