"The collectible, expanded edition of Paul Auster and Spencer Ostrander's "remarkably powerful" (Washington Post) Bloodbath Nation, an intimate and powerful rumination on American gun violence, now highlighting Ostrander's haunting photographs of the sites of mass shootings. In this short, searing book, Paul Auster traces centuries of America's use and abuse of guns, from the violent displacement of the native population to the forced enslavement of millions, to the bitter divide between embattled gun control and anti-gun control camps that has developed over the past 50 years and the mass shootings that dominate the news today. Interwoven with Spencer Ostrander's haunting photographs of the sites of more than thirty mass shootings in all parts of the country, Bloodbath Nation presents a succinct but thorough examination of America at a crossroads, and asks the central, burning question of our moment: What kind of society do we want to live in?"--
