In To Love a Country, writer and historian Dominic Erdozain pulls back the veil from this history of American patriotism, exposing the country’s fierce and long-standing tension between its ideals and its realities—contradictions that have for so long obstructed America’s fulfillments of its foundational promises: patriotism vs. justice; manifest destiny vs. shared and equal liberty; isolationism vs. collaborative self-realization.

More than a hundred lives are lost to firearms every day in America. The cost is more than the numbers—it is the fear, the anxiety, the dread of public spaces that an armed society has created under the tortured rubric of freedom. But the norms of today are not the norms of American history or the values of its founders. They are the product of a gun culture that has imposed its vision on a sleeping nation. Historian Dominic Erdozain argues that we have wrongly ceded the big-picture argument on guns.
