Product Description From conservative talk radio's fastest-growing superstar...
New York Times bestselling phenomenon and author of the groundbreaking critique of the Supreme Court, Men in Black, and the deeply personal dog lover's memoir Rescuing Sprite, Mark R. Levin now delivers the work that characterizes both his devotion to his more than 5 million listeners and his love of our country and the legacy of our Founding Fathers: Liberty and Tyranny is Mark R. Levin's clarion call to conservative America, a new manifesto for the conservative movement for the 21st century.
In the face of the modern liberal assault on Constitution-based values, an attack that has steadily snowballed since President Roosevelt's New Deal of the 1930s and resulted in a federal government that is a massive, unaccountable conglomerate, the time for re-enforcing the intellectual and practical case for conservatism is now. Conservative beliefs in individual freedoms do in the end stand for liberty for all Americans, while liberal dictates lead to the breakdown of civilized society -- in short, tyranny. Looking back to look to the future, Levin writes "conservatism is the antidote to tyranny precisely because its principles are our founding principles." And in a series of powerful essays, Levin lays out how conservatives can counter the liberal corrosion that has filtered into every timely issue affecting our daily lives, from the economy to healthcare, global warming, immigration, and more -- and illustrates how change, as seen through the conservative lens, is always prudent, and always an enhancement to individual freedom.
As provocative, well-reasoned, robust, and informed as his on-air commentary, Levin's narrative will galvanize listeners to begin a new era in conservative thinking and action. Liberty and Tyranny provides a philosophical, historical, and practical framework for revitalizing the conservative vision and ensuring the preservation of American society.

excellent book November 24, 2009 J. D. Bromagem (grants pass or) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a great book from front to back. I have read it twice and passed it along to my family. I have no idea where it is now but I am sure many have gained some knowledge from this book.
Clear Statement of Conservative Philosophy November 24, 2009 Rick (SF, CA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I was raised conservative and have always voted conservative, though I only had a vague idea of what it was meant to be one. I wasn't sure what a "Reagan Conservative" was (though I felt it intuitively) or for that matter what specifically defined a liberal or ultra-liberal. Being constantly surrounded by liberals, I've always questioned my conservative principles. Levin's book helped me crystallize what I had been feeling all my life, and he helps introduce the historical and philosophical underpinnings to help strengthen my beliefs. I recommend this book to any political conservative who wants to flesh out their ideals, any independent who may have some conservative leanings, and any liberal who wants to understand why conservatives think the way they do.

if u beleive in Jesus Christ and think the united states and it's constitution is a blessing from God u should read this book and share it with your family, friends and children because the united states and it's constitution is under severe attack by the devil and his liberal minded operatives.
