From the introduction by R. James Woolsey, Former Director of Central Intelligence ...It's not easy to describe what Caroline Glick does -- neither "journalist," nor "reporter" nor "woman of letters" really fits her, and this collection is more than just a remarkable set of well-written and vivid columns and reports. I think of Caroline Glick not just as someone who chronicles the politics, morals, tactics, and implications of the leading issues of our time but more importantly as our chief gumption-keeper. If you are put off by straight-from-the shoulder prose or have a soft spot in your heart for political correctness, you may want to find something else to read. But if your taste runs to appreciating skillful and direct confrontation of cant, duplicity, appeasement, and wishful thinking -- along the lines of the writings in the 1930's of George Orwell and Winston Churchill, but on today's manifestations of the issues those men confronted so brilliantly -- then you've got the right book in hand.
