Recommendation Monday #9

By Cecil Burch | November 26, 2018

 

Massad Ayoob is one of the most experienced trainers in the history of armed self-defense. Not only is he one of the foremost lecturers on the legal aspects, he is a deep thinker and researcher on the actual performance of self-defense for the everyday person. He is also an incredibly prolific writer. Here are a list of what I consider “must own” books for the serious self-defense minded person.
