Hardback. Zustand: Fair. Today's Left endlessly preaches the evils of gun violence. It is a message increasingly echoed from the nation's pulpits, presented as common-sense decency and virtue. Calls for radical non-violence are routinely endowed with the imprimatur of religious doctrine. But what if such teachings were misguided, even damaging? What if the potential of a citizenry to exercise force against violent criminals and tyrannical governments is not just compatible with church teaching, but flows from the very heart of Biblical faith and reason? What if the freedoms we treasure are intimately tied to the power to resist violent coercion? This is the long-overdue case John Zmirak makes with stunning clarity and conviction in No Second Amendment, No First. A Yale-educated journalist and former college professor, Zmirak shows how the right of self-defense against authoritarian government was affirmed in both the Old and New Testaments, is implied in Natural Law, and has been part of Church tradition over the centuries. Zmirak further shows how today's mounting threats to the gun rights guaranteed by the Second Amendment are inexorably linked to the increasingly brazen attacks by secularists on human dignity as the image of God. Indeed, the more than 200 million civilians murdered by governments in the 20th century have in common two attributes: From Lenin's Russia to Hitler's Germany, from Mao's China to Castro's Cuba those murders were at the hands of rabidly anti-religious regimes; and the victims had first been disarmed in the name of public safety. The story is unchanging: always, the first move of authoritarians is to deny citizens the ability to defend themselves against the tyrannical state. America's Founders, themselves products of a vital Christian tradition where churches served as the nexus for organizing citizens militias for self-defense, were keenly aware of this. It is why they enshrined the Second Amendment as the last backstop against tyranny. They understood, as the Supreme Court has recently reaffirmed, that far from a second class privilege, gun rights are the guarantor of all the others - and never more so than in a time when free speech and the free exercise of religion are under threat. No Second Amendment, No First is nothing less an urgent call for moral clarity, and a full-throated reminder of what is at stake in the war for our nation's soul.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Pete Hoekstra, the former chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, tells the real story behind the tragic events in Benghazi and the Obama Administration's disastrous foreign policy catastrophe in Libya. ARCHITECTS OF DISASTER documents the role played by an inexperienced president and a politicized US State Department under Hillary Clinton in turning a stable North African country into a failed jihadist state spreading terrorism throughout the Middle East and releasing a flood of fearful immigrants onto the Mediterranean and into Europe. In his new book, Pete Hoekstra cuts to the core in identifying how a radical Islamist agenda left to its own devices cannot reconcile with Western ideals of tolerance and acceptance. Architects of Disaster creates the necessary framework in which future administrations can apply lessons learned to better inform critical foreign policy decisions. - Mitt Romney, former Governor of Massachusetts and 2012 Republican Presidential nominee A graphic autopsy of what went wrong in Libya and why. - James Jay Carafano, Heritage Foundation Pete Hoekstra's thorough examination of how the Obama Administration's misguided policies contributed in the past few years to Libya's disintegration is must reading. This insightful history and analysis is worth careful study, especially as America's citizens debate what policies should come next after President Obama leaves office. - John Bolton, former US Ambassador to the UN.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. A practicing pediatrician for 23 years and director of the International Family Clinic in Burlington, North Carolina for the past 16, Dr. Rosemary Stein is a highly-regarded expert in childhood development. In Who Needs a Village? It's a Mom Thing Dr. Stein explains how modern parenting has created a generation of children lacking the confidence and skills to succeed in the real world - and tells parents (and moms especially) what they need to do to get their kids back on track. Raised in both America and her parents' native Dominican Republic, Dr. Stein reveals how her perspective was shaped by her own experiences growing up in those very different cultures. With unflinching honesty, she discusses the personal struggles - and occasional failures - that helped lead to the understandings about children and their needs that have proven so successful in her own practice. Above all, she says, moms must learn to reclaim their innate power; ensuring that they can no longer be bullied by societal pressures, or other parents or, as is all too often the case, their own children. As its title suggests, Who Needs a Village? It's a Mom Thing takes on much that in our increasingly undemanding society has become conventional parenting wisdom. It pulls no punches in its insistence that no job is more important than that of a parent - or in its message that that job cannot be done nearly as well by anyone else. But her overriding concern is to build sturdier children by reversing the current disastrous trend, and she is ready and willing to take the heat.…
