Softcover. Condition: New. Second Revised Edition. 6 X 9"; xix, 240 pages; Sot cover has grey spine with red lettering. NEW. Pages are clean and tight. 'Stephen Halbrook's groundbreaking study of freed slaves and the right to bear arms in the aftermath of the Civil War, cited in Supreme Court cases, now with a new foreword by Robert J. Cottrol. What did it mean to take civil rights seriously--especially the "right to bear arms"--in the years following the abolition of slavery? By quoting legislative debates, Congressional hearings on Ku Klux Klan violence, and newspapers and law books of the time, constitutional scholar Stephen Halbrook shows that both supporters and opponents of the Fourteenth Amendment (1868) believed that it protected all Bill of Rights guarantees--especially the Second Amendment--from infringement by the states. From the Freedmen's Bureau Act of 1866 to the Supreme Court's decision in United States v. Cruikshank (1876) , Halbrook paints a vivid portrait of a political and legal system grappling with the true meaning of civil rights.' Notes; bibliography; index. Seller Inventory # 16042
