While Europe Slept: How Radical Islam is Destroying the West from Within210 reviews
Bruce Bawer

Broadway, 2007

Let's Hope That Europe Wakes Up!!!
There are many who will blast this book as being antiMuslim propaganda. That is complete nonsense (but as the author points out in the book, anything less than complete submission to the teachings of Islam will be viewed by Islamic extremists as being antiMuslim). This is a book that desperately needed to be written, and now needs to be read by every freedom loving person in the precariously free ... 		  
  







  
  
Day of Reckoning: How Hubris, Ideology, and Greed Are Tearing America Apart59 reviews
Patrick J. Buchanan

Thomas Dunne Books, 2007

Another excellent book from Pat Buchanan
I will admit I'm highly biased in favor of Pat Buchanan. I had the pleasure of meeting him during the 1992 campaign at Central Michigan University. I actually saw the extreme bias of the new media because they personally organized a few groups of protestors into something larger than it actually was. Shame You-Tube didn't exist then and we could have shown the media creating alternative news. ...

Joe's Law: America's Toughest Sheriff Takes on Illegal Immigration, Drugs and Everything Else That Threatens ...17 reviews
Joe Arpaio, Len Sherman

AMACOM, 2008

...power and stupidity: a dangerous combination....
...Joseph Arpaio's messages are devoid of any intellectually validated foundations....his strategies are similarly suspect....he functions unfortunately in a capacity in which the power invested in his office has facilitated the elaboration of delusional and often of sadistic thinking....the success of Mister Arpaio's style is almost totally dependent on how much attention is by the public ... 		  
  







  
  
The Arrival29 reviews
Shaun Tan

Arthur A. Levine Books, 2007

An amazing book and more!
Saying that it is an amazing book would be selling it short! Like all fine works of art it is to be cherished. Go grab a copy and 'see' it if you haven't or even if you have! 		  
  







  
  
The New Case Against Immigration: Both Legal and Illegal6 reviews
Mark Krikorian

Sentinel HC, 2008

Enemies R Us
Mark Krikorian has written a noble volume on current immigration problems, one refreshingly free of either mean-spiritedness or political partisanship. His thesis is that a common American civic culture is worth preserving - his opponents, therefore, include many current, confidence-lacking American citizens, chief among them those government, global corporate, academic and media types who are ... 		  
  







  
  
Enrique's Journey48 reviews
Sonia Nazario

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2007

Enlightening and eye/opening experience
This book greatly impressed me and I read it straight through in one sitting. The author's knowledge and perspective of this issue really helps to illustrate all angles of the immigration debate. Enrique's harrowing journey tugs at the heart and the outcome of the book builds an reaction of unexpectance. I highly recommend this book for anyone who has any interest in Central America, poverty, ... 		  
  







  
  
The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine74 reviews
Ilan Pappe

Oneworld Publications, 2007

A real eye-opener. A ***MUST READ*** book!
Ilan Pappe has produced an amazing and concise summary of the events of 1947-1949, and has shown how badly we've all been taken in by the Israeli propaganda machine. What had once seemed heroic is now despicable. The ethnic cleansing actions described are horrendous. I understand now the basis for what the Palestinian leadership has been saying for years. I have no sympathy for terrorists, but ...

Another Man's Sombrero: A Conservative Broadcaster's Undercover Journey Across the Mexican Border6 reviews
Darrell Ankarlo

Thomas Nelson, 2008

Another Man's Awakening
Until I read this book, I thought I had a clear, knowledgeable understanding of illegal immigration. Before the fifth chapter I realized how little I actually knew, and I live in the area Ankarlo is writing about. One of the other reviews I read was critical of the black and white photographs in the book. If I wanted to be critical, I would agree. However, Ankarlo describes his experiences ... 		  
  







  
  
. . . If You Sailed on the Mayflower in 16207 reviews
Ann McGovern

Scholastic Paperbacks, 1991

This book is hard to put down!
I got "If You Sailed on the Mayflower in 1620" for our Thanksgiving unit based on several glowing recommendations. I was not disappointed. Both my 5 yo and I had a hard stopping once we got started. I learned things about the Pilgrims I'd never known. And, the content is fascinating for children. It covered such curious topics as Did they bathe on the Mayflower?, What did they eat?, How were ... 		  
  







  
  
The Dream: A Memoir4 reviews
Harry Bernstein

Ballantine Books, 2008

Even better than the Invisible Wall
I could not wait until this book arrived and it was even better than Bernstein's first book. He really describes his family members so that the reader can understand who and why they are. His devotion to both his mother who was the inspiration for his dreams and his wife who was the love of his life is very touching. I cried when I finished the book. My only solace is the note at the end which ...

Letters from Rifka83 reviews

Inspiring story!

Rifka and her family leave Russia in 1919 after her brothers flee from the Russian army, where Jewish draftees are abused and often killed.

The Keeping Quilt (Aladdin Picture Books)21 reviews

Aladdin, 2001

The Keeping Quilt is a great book.
For a long time I searched for information about Russian quilt history. I gave up when I went to St. Petersburg, Russia and could only find new publications on how to make a modern quilt. I was very glad to see in this book the quilt made by a Russian lady. I was glad to find that it was made of fabrics of used garments of loved ones. It affirmed my conviction that women everywhere will make ... 		  
  







  
  
Ask Me No Questions7 reviews
Marina Budhos

Simon Pulse, 2007

Richie's Picks: ASK ME NO QUESTIONS
"...And it's a story, ladies and gentlemen, that I didn't read in a book, or learn in a classroom. I saw it and lived it, like many of you. I watched a small man with thick calluses on both his hands work 15 and 16 hours a day. I saw him once literally bleed from the bottoms of his feet, a man who came here uneducated, alone, unable to speak the language, who taught me all I needed ...

State of Emergency: The Third World Invasion and Conquest of America244 reviews
Patrick J. Buchanan

Thomas Dunne Books, 2006

American Pie to be Cut into 6 Billion Pieces
Disclaimer: I am not the Mike Ferry who wrote the book listed on Amazon "How to Develop a Six Figure Income in Real Estate" (paperback Nov. 1, 1992). But I think that I shall put it on my wish list. Consider: Jamiel Shaw Jr. (age 17) was gunned down March 2, 2008 near his home allegedly by an illegal alien 18th Street gang member just 24 hours after the killer's release from an L.A. County ... 		  
  







  
  
Brother, I'm Dying21 reviews
Edwidge Danticat

Knopf, 2007

Moving, beyond words
You'd have to be made of stone not to be affected by this lovely, touching memoir by one of our finest writers, writing about her relationships with her two fathers. The fact that she is so eloquent and able to convey this story so well brings it sharply into focus. And that an innocent man, fleeing for his life, is treated with such unbelievable disregard makes me ashamed to be an American.
