Book Description:

In this intellectual companion piece to his acclaimed autobiography, Radical Son, David Horowitz argues that, even in this supposedly post-ideological, post-Cold War era, the historic themes of that conflict still drive our politics and animate our cultural debates. With keen political insight and a masterly grasp of history, he examines how the political Left, including those who describe themselves as liberals, has refused to learn from the past -- particularly from the checkered records of progressive movements for social justice.

This important work is a cohesive and searing document for all who refuse to bury their heads in the sand while American institutions and beliefs are corrupted by the politics of bad faith masquerading under the guise of social justice.

When I first got this book I read the first two chapters and enjoyed it very much but it didnt grip my heart and being an emotional reader I laid it down for a month and read something else. I just picked it up and again and due to underlining so much of it I cant and wouldnt think of putting it back in system because I want to keep it for all time. This book is so intelligent, elegant even, that I felt my IQ rise 5 points simply by reading it.
First part is about Islam faith and I was shocked to read what they think and feel about America and Israel.But that didnt grab my heart. It was the letters written between David and Carol, one a tried and blue Communist, the other a converted Communist, turned conservative. Then my was gripped into this conversation. The chapters that followed astounding! The section and quotes and statistics in chapter 5 the Radical Holocaust caused me to not put this book down until I finished it. I underlined so much of it I will never be able to put it back into the system so I will do the next best thing, which is, to let others know that this book is a must read. It will define what the true right and left is all about, it adresses the dangers of our society and of socialism and how it will bring, not a new way of life, but a diseased and flawed way of life like reanimated dead flesh with all its horrors and new ones to boot. Read it! You will feel smarter after you do and the greatest thing is you will be!! Good book David. I wrote one too but its not even in your class, its just my story of what they did to me after I spoke out about the murder of a boy by a homosexual man in California. Thank you for your book I wish I could write like you. I have the passion just not the ability. You have a true gift. God bless you. I give this book a 7.
