Review:This is fascinating and explains the many nationalities and their personality traits of my ancestors, relatives, and friends, who are Northerners and Southerners: Some are Yankees (Wisconsin, Minnesota, northeast Iowa), some are Midlands (south central Iowa, Illinois, Ohio, Indiana), some are Appalachians (Tennessee), some are Far Westerners (North Dakota, Montana, Wyoming), some are Left Coasters (Oregon, California) and some are Southern (transplants living in Georgia and North Carolina). I... Read more

Review:Very informative and educational. East European names are confusing at times but to be expected. Chapters on the "disinformation campaign" against the church and Pope Pius XII should be a lesson to all on how the political left and particularly the communist party works with the press.

Review:I just finished this book and it is wonderfully compelling. It is classic Miller. The author wanders all over the place spinning humor and digressions into a coherent story of how he got to a place where life is fulfilling. This is a road map to life that is not liquored up with distractions, amusements, and wishful thinking. Miller explains how post-post modern people can find meaning without sentimentality, and how the difficulty of the journey makes the results sweeter. Read more

Review:This is an incredibly important work that should be widely read by those interested in the clash between the West and the Middle East that caught the West off guard on September 11th, 2001. The clash goes all the way back to the very beginnings of Islam and the manner in which the Islamic religion and culture were spread by force, treachery and extortion throughout the Middle East, North Africa and eventually Spain. It only took 79 years from the death of Muhammad for the armies of Islam to beg... Read more

Review:Very few academic historians write narrative history these days; they prefer history as social science. This book shows what such an historian can do if she does write old-fashioned narrative. The book is superb. It covers the Mexican war, its origins, course, and consequences. The author focuses on several particular individuals who were important political actors, such as Henry Clay and Abraham Lincoln. And she covers the antiwar movement, too, which was much more significant than I had realiz... Read more

Review:Rambling through history, myth and superstition this author leads the reader on a journey worth taking. The language is evocative and superb. The anecdotes and stories are interesting with a great deal of humour thrown in. Read more

Review:Excellent. Incredible book. A must read for every believer and nonbelievers. If we lose the founding vision of this country we will lose the Liberty American has always stood for. Not only believers but eventually non Read more

Review:This is a good book, and deserves more stars. My review is on the quality of the kindle edition. There are OCR problems throughout the book. Many times the word "live" is written "five" in the book. There's even a spot where there is an unprintable character that didn't get fixed. The whole book needs to be proofread and corrected after the scan from the original. This book should be much cheeper if there was little to no cost in it's production. (Since it's pretty obvious no actual edito... Read more

Review:Reading Freeman's well written and interesting book will give you a great background and a deep historical understanding of how Christianity came to dominate the Western world for a thousand years, what that has cost in terms of intellectual degradation, and how, if the peoples of the West are to better their condition in the new century they must regain the intellectual confidence so characteristic of Greek civilization. This is a really good book. Read more

Review:Based on volume of squealing, Ann Coulter hit the sensitive point with liberals and other socialists. Ann should be commended for her courage. She personifies what is great about this country - willingness and ability of an individual to tell unpleasant truth to a powerful enemy.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the book and can fully recommend it to anyone who cares about freedom and western culture.

Great job! Read more
