About this audiobook
A fiery and lucid critique of modern society, attacking the twin evils of big business and big government that crush the common man. Defending the family, the home, and the individual, the arguments dissect the failures of feminism, capitalism, and socialism alike. It is a call to return to common sense and the sanctity of the human scale.
