Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This is an easy to read book, well written, and persuasive -- adding great points to the discussion of why the nation is not where it should be, given the great record of benevolence and greatness that America has accumulated over the previous 100 years. America: Imagine a World without Her by the academician Dinesh D'Souza also attempts to answers the nagging questions of what needs to be done to get it back on track, while refuting every accusation leveled by her liberal critics for her historic record. Despite the temporary setbacks in the nation, given an out-of control government; profligate public expenditures with a monstrously escalating national debt; the abuses and corruption of the redistributive welfare state, maintained by an increasing tax burden on middle class Americans; and the prevailing progressive accusatory views in liberal academia, progressive Hollywood, and the popular culture -- D'Souza thinks America is still great and worth defending. In America: Imagine a World without Her, D'Souza mounts a formidable defense of America's traditional values and debunks the progressive arguments that America is a force for inequality and injustice needing to be reformed under the aegis of an all-powerful but caring federal government. It is ironic that it has been not only Tea Party activists, but distinguished conservative authors, including Dinesh D'Souza and the neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson, who have been single out for political IRS investigations and harassment. One suspects this is for their outspoken conservative views, such as those espoused in their recent books, including this magnificent tome, America: Imagine a World without Her. Once again, as he did with his 2012 masterful documentary 2016 Obama's America, Dinesh D'Souza should be commended for a well-reasoned book, historical research uncovering the goodness of America, writing another exemplary book defending America's legacy of conservative values, and refuting her liberal "do-gooders" detractors. I suspect that conservatives will love this book; apolitical people will be given a lot to think about; but liberals and progressives will attack it because it deflates their liberal cliches and faulty but impassioned arguments searching for nonexistent utopias and castles in the air, every place else, but not in the U.S.A! Get this book and read it, so you too can defend America and her values of freedom and opportunity for all, with sound logic, historical examples, and the valuable insights of this great American.
