For the individual armed citizen, an Active Shooter situation is the prototypical Black Swan event: Low probability but very high impact if it happens when and where you are. And in the wake of recent reported shootings it can and has been a very worrisome situation for any such concerned defender. What can you do to prepare yourself to deal with such a thing? What are your options when face with such a horrific attack? What do you need to know and what do you need to do? This is an attempt to provide not specific answers to detailed situations, but a series of guidelines and suggestions that can be considered and used by anyone without specialized knowledge or training to prepare their own answers and their own approach to this test. It attempts to gather, organize, and outline a framework around which specifics can be built according to the ability, knowledge, and experience of the individual builder. It is a compilation of ideas from many gathered from many places and many people. It not the answer itself, but an attempt to give you, the armed citizen who may one day be the real first responder to this kind of attack, some help and some basis for forming your own answers to this very serious question: What can I do if...? My hope as the author/organizer of this material is that no one reading it will ever have to find out how useful it is. But just in case that hope is not fulfilled, I hope that something in this will help you keep yourself and your loved ones alive and whole. This revision includes additional information and examples based on what has been learned and is known about the most recent attacks. Sections discussing attacks with vehicles, bladed weapons, and options for when you don't have a gun of your own among others have been added. I am one of the few and perhaps the only author that continues to revise and update the material in their books in this way and I will continue to do so. The enemy is learning and adapting. So should we.
Revised Edition with Black and White photos: Not a single-concept book, not a technique-only book, but a series of essays covering mental, moral, physical, emotional, tactical, technical, and procedural aspects of and ideas about the counter-offensive fight as the author believes Reality presents it to the non-military, non-law-enforcement defender of life and loved ones.

Volume 2 Version 1.1 of the series continues the examination of elements of the counter-offensive fight in a smaller, handier book format with some updates and corrections. Mental and physical aspects are covered with an emphasis on concepts and principles over checklists of standard tactics and techniques. This book approaches the subject of gunfighting from a different direction and with a different attitude than almost any other book on the subject you can find.
A three-in-one volume that includes all material in the first three books of the Gunfighting... series in a larger format for easier reading.
Everything was different this mission. USS Alabama was deploying to a different area for a different mission with different weapons that not only she but any ballistic missile submarine in history had. One thing was not different this time, though: There was opposition to her and her mission. And that opposition had some new wrinkles to throw into the fabric of submarine warfare as it was currently understood. If they had their way those new wrinkles would fold around the American submarine closely enough to keep her not just from completing her mission but from coming home again.
The fourth book in the Gunfighting...series. This is the 8.5 x 11 format version. (There is also a 6 x 9 format version for those of you who want a smaller book.) Inside this book you will find ideas and opinions on: Making yourself safe with a gun in training and practice. Some ideas about how to prepare yourself for when the gunfight is over. The change in your personal threat environment and how to adjust to it. Combat Triage. Why you need to work on conditioning even if you carry a gun. Why it isn't always a knife 'fight'. Why I don't believe revolvers should be a preferred or default carry weapon. An alternative to the classic failure-to-stop drill. Thoughts on what to shoot for for best effect. The Civilian PDW. Changing sides when shooting. And a few other ideas. It's all part of a book's work where the Gunfighting...series is concerned.

In this text, that is a celebration of joy as hope, H.A. Williams explores the world of selfhood, of other people, of nature and of the arts. Williams bids the reader to remember that the hole in the human heart cannot be filled with anything less than God.
An anthology work from religious teacher, H.A. Williams, and arranged in the major themes of his writing. The book, like Williams himself, is unorthodox by the tenets of contemporary Christianity but it encompasses the uncertainties and fears, the joys and sorrows common to us all.
The True Wilderness has established itself as one of the spiritual classics of the 20th century. Given as sermons to Trinity College undergraduates in the years following the author's breakdown in the 1950's, it illustrates the dangers of bad religion and the debilitating effects of a false view of God. Williams goes on to show that the true God is experienced by people who have accepted themselves and other people. It is a plea for a positive, life-enhancing faith and its unsparing honesty is particularly suited to contemporary readers. H.A. Williams was born in 1919 and was Fellow and Dean of Trinity College, Cambridge until 1969 when he joined the Community of the Resurrection and Mirfield, Yorkshire. He is the author of Joy of God, True to Experience and True Resurrection (all published by Continuum).
