He was the most controversial American general in World War II—and also one of the most successful, courageous, and audacious. As a post-war administrator of defeated Germany, he sounded alarm bells about the dangers of Soviet encroachment into Europe. Politically, he was a lightning rod—an outspoken conservative who continually embarrassed his superiors with his uncensored, undiplomatic, and unrestrained comments to the press. He was General George S. Patton Jr., "Old Blood and Guts."

The most dangerous Muslim radicals won't be sneaking through our borders from the Middle East -- they're already here. That's the alarming message of Washington-based investigative reporter Paul Sperry's new book, Infiltration: How Muslim Spies and Subversives Have Penetrated Washington. Using access to classified documents as well as exclusive interviews with FBI agents, Customs officers, and military intelligence officials, Sperry reveals how the top levels of our government, armed forces and intelligence agencies have been compromised by radical Muslims -- many of them trained, supported, and inserted into their positions by the so-called "moderate" Muslim establishment in America. Cleverly exploiting "diversity," "religious freedom," and tax-exemption laws, these subversives have gained firm footholds in key American institutions, including public schools and universities, the federal and state prison system, law enforcement, the military, nuclear weapons laboratories, the Department of Homeland Security -- even the White House.

We are still caught in the lie that Darwinism is the only respectable scientific position -- and much of this pseudoscientific dogmatism rests on myths surrounding the enigmatic figure of Charles Darwin himself. Darwin would change the world with his theory -- but the popular perception of him as a disinterested scientist who arrived at this theory after painstaking and meticulous examination of the natural world is dead wrong. As Benjamin Wiker proves in The Darwin Myth: The Life and Lies of Charles Darwin, Darwin did not originate the theory of evolution. Darwin's singular achievement was to dress it up with enough scientific trappings to make it plausible -- a goal which he pursued out of a fanatical desire to strike a blow at Christianity and eradicate the idea that human beings were created in the image of God. Wiker shows that Darwinism, despite the shrill denials of many of its supporters, does indeed lead to atheism -- because Darwin designed it to do so.

The Confederate soldier was revered by Northerners and Southerners alike long after the war ended for what Philip A. Bruce calls “the high, the gallant, and the romantic aspects” of his character.

Bruce’s vivid account of numerous deeds of daring, bravado, cunning, and selfless courage by Confederate partisans during the great conflict will fire your children’s imaginations — and impress upon them the all-important lesson that some causes are worth risking everything to advance. read more

For more than a century the fate of the Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley remained one of the great unsolved mysteries of the Civil War. The brainchild of wealthy New Orleans planter and lawyer Horace Lawson Hunley, the Hunley inspired tremendous hopes of breaking the Union's naval blockade of Charleston, only to drown two crews on disastrous test runs. But on the night of February 17, 1864, the Hunley finally made good on its promise. Under the command of the heroic Lieutenant George E. Dixon, the sub rammed a spar torpedo into the Union sloop Housatonic and sank the ship within minutes, accomplishing a feat of stealth technology that would not be repeated for half a century. read more

Thus warned Hilaire Belloc in 1936 -- long before the Christian West permitted millions of Moslems to immigrate and proliferate, building thousands of new mosques in the United State and Europe, including a huge one in Rome itself a few years ago. Belloc's essay on Moslems, together with five important and meaty Catholic Encyclopedia articles by scholar Gabriel Oussani in 1908, comprise this valuable new book. read more

Americans tend to lack a basic understanding of military matters, and no wonder: For nearly half a century, military history has become increasingly unfashionable on campus. "This state of neglect in our schools is profoundly troubling," writes classics professor and conservative commentator Victor Davis Hanson. "Democratic citizenship requires knowledge of war -- and now, in the age of weapons of mass annihilation, more than ever." In The Father Of Us All: War and History, Ancient and Modern, Hanson helps to fill that gap in our knowledge with 13 of his finest recent essays on the subject. Revised and combined into a well- articulated whole, the chapters in this book explore such topics as how technology shapes warfare, what constitutes the "American way of war," and why even those who abhor war need to study military history. "War is the father and king of us all," Heraclitus wrote in ancient Greece -- and Hanson shows why it that is no less so today.

Exclusive hardcover edition -- not available in stores!

One of the first things Stalin, Hitler, Mao and other totalitarians did was rewrite the histories of their nations, remaking the past to foster their control of the present. The American Left has done the same thing in our country: most American history books - both for students and adults -- are riddled with PC nonsense that makes the Founding Fathers over into racist slaveholders, the settlers of the West into genocidal land-stealers, and the welfare state into the harbinger of the ultimate triumph of liberalism.

Since the attacks of September 11, 2001, many attempts at explanation have been made -- but few if any have matched the analytical depth and original displayed by English philosopher and cultural commentator Roger Scruton. In The West and the Rest: Globalization and the Terrorist Threat, Scruton argues that to comprehend and combat Islamic terrorism, one must understand both the unique historical evolution of the state and the dynamic of globalization. Some highlights of his argument: read more

No war in American history is so shrouded in obfuscation and myth than the Vietnam War: "Vietnam" has entered into our national memory as a byword for disaster, usually accompanied by the word "quagmire," and the specter of the war has haunted our foreign policy discussions ever since. Left-leaning historians with a political agenda, aided and abetted by the liberal media, have convinced the world that for America, the Vietnam War was a tragic and dismal failure. Liberal pundits and leftist professors have been telling lies and getting away with it -- despite the fact that the war was televised at the time and has been the subject of innumerable books and studies.
