This book is a MUST have if you own a gun or are thinking about getting one. Be safe, not sorry.
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.
Georgene Lockwood's bio will be posted here shortly. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

This review is from: The Texas Gun Owner's Guide, Fifth Edition (Paperback)
I purchased a used copy of The Texas Gun Owners Guide from Amazon and found that with all the changes in the law that the version that I had was very much out of date and offered incorrect information because of changes in the law. Make sure that you purchase the most recent version. Otherwise the book is well written and filled the gaps from my recent CHL class. The author maintains a website and an email service to keep the user up to date on law changes.

This review is from: The Texas Gun Owner's Guide, Fifth Edition (Paperback)
Yes, the first thing out of my CHL instructor's mouth (about this book) was "it's out of date". I still consider this book was very helpful. Most of the information is perfectly correct, and all the important information is and will most likely remain correct, plus it has some very well written ways of telling you in plain English, the things you need to consider before using deadly force. The book uses excellent humor to illustrate what it's trying to get across. I consider this book indispensable. I was the only person in our class to ace the CHL written test. I recommend this book for anyone in Texas that has a gun, and plans on using it for protection. This book contains information that no one is born knowing. Owning a gun in Texas is NOT all common sense. Of course, you must stay current on all gun laws in Texas, since they're subject to change every 2 years- and they're easily obtainable online, However, I enjoyed this book and very glad I purchased it.
