Reviews
Even though the title is Handgun Guide for Women, this is a book I would recommend to anyone, regardless of gender if they're new to shooting and are interested in learning about handguns. Other books geared towards beginners seem sto assume there is a certain level of knowledge about guns and shooting ranges. Engle makes no such assumptions. She covers the basics to thoroughly, that after reading it, any beginner will feel comfortable moving through the often0time intimidating, scary gun world with ease. - GUNS Magazine
It's a scary world out there, said Tara Dixon Engel, an NRA-certified gun instructor and author of The Handgun Guide for Women. Between the nutcases and terrorists and the standard, run-of-the-mill criminals, a lone female is an easy target. - CNNMoney.com
