It was fine, I suppose. Intro book with a touch of fuddlore. I sort of went into it expecting to learn about neat revolver mechanics but I should've read the summary first.

starting to get into the epidemiological section of the book and there is so much history here that I've forgotten. we lived through some wild times (and we continue to do so now)

just finished the section on targets. I really like the author's idea of single targets with multiple options to reduce administrative time at the range. this wouldn't work as well for something like uspsa but it'd be great for lots of other types of range exercises.

wrapped up part two. the tech workers section was too close to home. I've been under the spell of "vocational awe" before and it's terrible to think about those times. spot on...
I also learned two new words reading this: sufferance and hidebound.

Roughly halfway through and the plot feels a little on the nose but it also feels like a twist might be in the works!
This is the next book for our homeschool lessons so I'm trying to wrap it up before our son has to read it.

Started in on the chapter about holstering and drawing. Again the book is very elementary but I think that's the point. There's good info here about getting on target from a holster safely.
