Robert A. Waters, author of "The Best Defense" obtained his B. S. degree in Political Science at Middle Tennessee State University and his M. Ed. in Rehabilitation Counseling at the University of Georgia. He worked for 25 years with the developmentally disabled before retiring in 1996. Waters' interest in writing and conservative causes blended in the research and writing of "The Best Defense: True Stories of Intended Victims Who Defended Themselves with a Firearm". He found thousands of documented cases in which victims successfully defended themselves with firearms--many of the attackers were hardened, career criminals. "If a fraction of these cases were publicized by the national media," Waters said, "gun control would become a dead issue." "The Best Defense" was recently chosen as a selection of the Conservative Book Club. Mr. Waters is married, with two children. He lives in his native Ocala, Florida.
