The Handgun Guide for Women

Shoot Straight, Shoot Safe, and Carry with Confidence

By: Tara Dixon Engel

The perfect book for any woman who is interested in purchasing, selecting, and owning a gun, from her first to her five-hundredth firearm. The Handgun Guide for Women gives a public voice to the legions of female gun enthusiasts in the United States. It is a common sense, step-by-step guide to making the decision to purchase a gun, selecting the correct gun, securely keeping a gun in the home, and maintaining the proficiency necessary to be a safe gun owner 100 percent of the time. The book also defies the theory among the popular media that women are, by their maternal nature, anti-gun. Author Tara Dixon Engel, an NRA-certified instructor in handguns, rifles, shotguns, personal defense, and home defense, writes that women should be gun advocates. A firearm is often the one thing that stands between your family and a predator. The Handgun Guide for Women reflects a passionate belief in the Second Amendment. It is a straightforward and meticulously clear representation of the responsibilities involved in gun ownership and is the perfect book for anyone who is considering owning a gun or who has been a proud gun owner for many years.

Naked in Da Nang

A Forward Air Controller in Vietnam

By: Mike Jackson,Tara Dixon-Engel

In Vietnam forward air controllers (FACs) flew low and slow, searching for signs of an elusive enemy. Often they trolled themselves as bait for the NVA troops to try to shoot down. When a friendly unit made contact, having a FAC overhead made the ground troops' day because the FACs controlled the bomb-, rocket-, and napalm-laden "fast movers"--fighter jets and attack aircraft whose ordnance often made the difference between life and death. Although regarded by many of their Air Force and Navy aviator brethren as insane, suicidal, or both, FACs ruled the skies over South Vietnam. FAC duty was difficult and dangerous no matter when or where they served. FACs stayed on station as long as they had fuel sufficient to make it home. In addition to the perils of enemy fire which ranged from lucky AK-47 shots to .51 caliber machine guns and SA-7 shoulder-fired surface-to-air missiles, they had to avoid being blown up in a B-52 Arc-Light strike or knocked down by friendly artillery. This was Mike Jackson's life for 366 days. In spring of 1972 he hugged the DMZ fighting back against the massive NVA attack that became know as the Easter Offensive. H also was part of the around-the-clock team of FACs who managed the rescue of BAT-21, immortalized in the Gene Hackman-Danny Glover movie of the same name. As the title suggests, however, Naked in Da Nang is not an angst ridden account of mortal combat. Following in the footsteps of Richard Hooker's classic M*A*S*H: A Novel About Three Army Doctors, author Jackson has a keen eye for the absurdities that abound in a combat zone. That the humor is often dark only serves to sharpen its comic edge."--Publisher's description.
