Principles of Personal Defense
Seller: Don's Book Store, Albuquerque, NM, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Book is clean with a square, tight binding and bright, white pages. Book has minor wear on the edges that is difficult to see in the scans. Jeff Cooper, president and founder of The American Pistol Institute, is perhaps the nation's foremost instructor of defensive weapon-craft. As such, he teaches not only marksman-ship, safety, and weapon mechanics, but also defensive mental conditioning. This new, illustrated edition of Cooper's classic booklet, Principles of Personal Defense, offers new thoughts on the issue of personal defense today, while retaining the timeless theory of individual defensive behavior presented in the original edition. As Cooper wrote then, and still believes today, it is safe to say that a decisive majority of the victims of recent horrific murders would still be alive if they had read this short work and heeded what they read.
