"What we have here folks, between two covers, is that greatest of rarities, a fair picture of who owns guns."

-- David Petzel
Field and Stream

"Cassidy has shown the ability to step outside his personal feelings.... With a question that absolutely galvanizes public opinion, Armed America is a fair representation of people -- who just happen to own firearms."

-- Jim Shepherd
The Shooting Wire

"... stunning photos .... You can't finish this book and still make blanket judgments about gun owners."

-- Penthouse Magazine

"... haunting ..."

-- Mary Vallis
The National Post
8/9/2007

The diverse portrayal of human experience is refreshingly unexpected with a pervasive sense of humor.  Cassidy knows how to make the ride fun, expertly balancing a fun-loving, go-with-the-flow perspective with a clear appreciation for the people he photographs.... The juxtaposition of intricate portraits and thought-provoking statements creates a coffee table book that is both beautiful and highly relevant to current discussions, regardless of one's opinions about violence or gun regulations.  By placing weapons in a holistic context of home life and family and broadly considering the "Why?" of gun ownership, Armed America presents the possibility of dynamic engagement with a complex issue, rather than continuing a polarizing and stagnating debate.  The people become REAL, while the guns, in spite of their omnipresence, fade into a comfortable background.

"If you're left of center, right of center, or dead center, check out this book.... It's a perfect mix of serious commentary and whimsy."

-- Greg Allan
The Right Balance

"...Cassidy is focusing his lens more as an anthropologist than as a politico. And he certainly discovers a plethora of reasons as to why Americans own guns.... Some of the reasons are practical, others are fanatical."

--The Gun Guys
8/17/2007

" ... nothing could prepare fans of Cassidy's luxurious aesthetic with the equally plush and potent photos that famously fill Armed America: Portraits of Gun Owners in Their Homes. The gorgeous coffee-table book captures stylish weapon holders across the country without advocating the NRA or denouncing it."

"I hope this conversation entices you to go out and pick up a really fascinating book, called Armed America: Portraits of Gun Owners in Their Homes ... it is a thoroughly fascinating book and depending on where you stand on the issue of gun ownership and gun control you may find this book exhilarating or inspiring or troubling or thought-provoking or any number of responses."

--Greg Berg
WGTD-FM Morning Show
Wisconsin Public Radio

"Cassidy's genius extends beyond photographic excellence and vividly captures the subjects' personalities as well as their widely differing views on gun  ownership."
