Details

Michael A. Bellesiles (pronounced "bah-LEEL") is a former professor of American colonial and legal history at Emory University best known as the author of Arming America: The Origins of a National Gun Culture (Alfred A. Knopf, 2000), a book that won the prestigious Bancroft Prize in 2001. The prize was rescinded in 2002 after an inquiry of distinguished historians found Bellesiles "guilty of unprofessional and misleading work." Bellesiles responded that he had "never fabricated evidence of any kind nor knowingly evaded my responsibilities as a scholar," but he nonetheless resigned his Emory professorship the same year.
