Argues that violence is inextricably woven into the fabric of American heritage and experience. It traces the American modern-day conception of violence from the struggle to survive on the American frontier, through evolving gender roles, to the hysteria surrounding video and role-playing games and the more recent phenomenon of school shootings. This is a profound meditation on American violence and a "primer" on understanding what can often appear to be a profoundly dangerous nation.
