…A shining, yet alarming look at the dark side of American culture. A must read for anyone who cares about the future of the American nation.
— William Wagner, former U.S. Magistrate judge; professor, Thomas M. Cooley Law School
Washington is an erudite scholar. Agree or disagree, this book is worth reading.
— John W. Whitehead, Attorney; Founder/President of The Rutherford Institute; author, The Freedom Wars
Whether you agree with his views or not, the author's unflinching political incorrectness and incisive erudition is what is needed to resuscitate academic and socio-political debate in the USA and the West. The epithet 'page-turner' is usually reserved to thrillers, but this cornucopial tome deserves it richly.
— Sam Vaknin, editor-in-chief, Global Politician; author, Malignant Self-Love
Washington is a gifted writer, analyst, legal scholar and historian. We’re privileged to publish his work in WND.
— Joseph Farah, editor and chief executive officer, WND.com and WND Books
Washington is a meticulous historian, keen political analyst, and discerning lawyer…. This book is a must-read for anyone who wants to connect the dots between history, politics. and morality. Ellis Washington is the Thomas Sowell of his generation.
— Ann Fishman, legal analyst; founder of Liberty Legal Foundation International
