“The Death of the Liberal Class” is a sad book. Not that we require all books to have pleasant subjects. There are plenty of unhappy things that need to be said. This book is sad for another reason; it is sad that it came to be written at all. Chris Hodges is a radical. He […]
Most Wonderful Time For A Beer by John Patrick Gallagher
Most Wonderful Time For A Beer Humorous Seasonal Fiction by John Patrick Gallagher “Most Wonderful Time for a Beer.“ The title says it all.

This is a standard, action-adventure novel in the comic book style, with all the characters larger (much!) than life, and all the action super-fast and super-gruesome. It is interesting to note the evolution of this genre. As America’s enemies change, successive legions of Japs, Jerries, Chinks, Gooks, and soon Arabs become non-PC antagonists. Fortunately vampires, […]
