Book review of America Alone, a book written by
Mark Steyn in 2008.
It's the end of the world as we know
it...Someday soon, you might wake up to the call to prayer from a muezzin.
Europeans already are. And liberals will still tell you that "diversity is
our strength"--while Talibanic enforcers cruise Greenwich Village burning
books and barber shops, the Supreme Court decides sharia law doesn't violate
the "separation of church and state," and the Hollywood Left decides
to give up on gay rights in favor of the much safer charms of polygamy. If you
think this can't happen, you haven't been paying attention, as the hilarious,
provocative, and brilliant Mark Steyn--the most popular conservative columnist
in the English-speaking world--shows to devastating effect. The future, as
Steyn shows, belongs to the fecund and the confident. And the Islamists are
both, while the West is looking ever more like the ruins of a civilization. But
America can survive, prosper, and defend its freedom only if it continues to
believe in itself, in the sturdier virtues of self-reliance (not government),
in the centrality of family, and in the conviction that our country really is
the world's last best hope. Mark Steyn's America Alone is laugh-out-loud
funny--but it will also change the way you look at the world.
