First edition

This hardcover, first edition book is a well written treatment of an important topic, which offers an ambitious analysis of the relationship between the right of German townsmen to bear arms and the early understanding of citizenship, honour and gender. This book shows how civic institutions in early modern Germany, peer pressure and courts all combined and confirm masculine identity with blades and guns. As new condition but preowned.
