Gun Fight An Integrated Approach To Shooting In Close Quarters: by Richard Nance & Published by Looseleaf Law Publications Inc.

At first page thru I thought to myself that certain chapters/sections I would read in depth and other sort of skim thru. I was wrong in my initial perception. Each section/chapter I read in detail. There may be other books written on this subject. I’m no martial artist but in my younger days I did a certain amount of boxing and basic plus advanced hand to hand taught in the military. So from that perspective I know how a punching bag feels and now at my somewhat advanced age group it could prove to be fatal. That said there were take a ways in basic in firearm procedures and close quarter’s physical procedures that were worth considering in my state of physical being.

Aftermath Lessons In Self-Defense What To Expect When The Shooting Stops: by Jim Fleming & Published by Riversedge Productions.

The title is a statement of what information is contained within the pages of the book in regards to the legal system in regards to self-defense.
 
Massad has a newer updated 2014 version, more or less, of Gravest Extreme titled "Deadly Force", you can also read some updated material in his "Book of Concealed Carry" and "Digest of Combat Handgunnery."

John Farnam, also recommended. Farnam also covers use of long guns as well. His defense training international websites has material and quips reminiscent of Col. Cooper.

For revolver fans, Ed Lovette and Grant Cunningham as well as Bill Jordan have useful things to say.

I would also recommend regarding legal issues--
Mitch and Evan Vilos-"Self Defense Laws of All 50 States" 2nd ed.
"colorful with good anecdotes"
Andrew Branca-"The Law of Self Defense" and http://lawofselfdefense.com/
"a bit dry and lawyerly"
