One of the most powerful interest groups in America, the National Rifle Association has consistently managed to defeat or weaken proposed gun regulations-even despite widespread public support for stricter laws and the prevalence of mass shootings and gun-related deaths. Matthew Lacombe provides an unprecedented look at how this controversial organization built its political power and deploys it on behalf of its pro-gun agenda. Taking readers from the 1930s to the age of Donald Trump, Firepower sheds vital new light on how the NRA mobilizes average Americans through a distinct worldview fashioned around gun ownership, and how it uses its GOP alliance to advance its objectives and shape the national agenda.
