Gunslinging justice is written by Justin A. Joyce and published by Manchester University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 1526126184 (ISBN 10) and 9781526126184 (ISBN 13).
This book is a cultural history of the interplay between the Western genre and American gun rights and legal paradigms. From muskets in the hands of landed gentry opposing tyrannical government to hidden pistols kept to ward off potential attackers, the historical development of entwined legal and cultural discourses has sanctified the use of gun violence by private citizens and specified the conditions under which such violence may be legally justified. Gunslinging justice explores how the Western genre has imagined new justifications for gun violence which American law seems ever-eager to adopt.
