MEDIA ADVISORY,  May 8 /Christian Newswire/ -- South African Charl Van Wyk, author of "Shooting Back," published by WND Books, will speak at several locations in the New York and Washington area May 13-20. He is available for media interviews May 23-28.

In "Shooting Back" Van Wyk makes a case for individuals arming themselves with guns and does so more persuasively than perhaps any other author, because he found himself in a church attacked by terrorists.

"Grenades were exploding in flashes of light. Pews shattered under the blasts, sending splinters flying through the air," Van Wyk recalls of the July 25, 1993, St. James Church Massacre. "An automatic assault rifle was being fired and was fast ripping the pews – and whoever, whatever was in its trajectory – to pieces. We were being attacked!"
