Guns Along The Border is a non-fiction book written by Charles H. Snow. The book provides a comprehensive account of the gun smuggling operations that took place along the border between the United States and Mexico during the 20th century. Snow delves into the historical, political, and social factors that led to the proliferation of illegal firearms in the region, and the resulting violence that ensued.The book is divided into several chapters that cover different aspects of the gun smuggling trade. Snow begins by tracing the origins of the trade, which can be traced back to the Mexican Revolution of 1910. He then goes on to describe the various routes and methods used by smugglers to transport weapons across the border, including the use of tunnels, airplanes, and boats.Throughout the book, Snow provides numerous examples of the violence that resulted from the smuggling trade, including shootouts between smugglers and law enforcement officials, as well as clashes between rival smuggling gangs. He also discusses the ways in which the trade has impacted both the United States and Mexico, including the rise of drug cartels and the destabilization of the region.Overall, Guns Along The Border is a fascinating and informative book that provides a detailed look at a little-known aspect of American history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of gun smuggling, border security, or the relationship between the United States and Mexico.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
