America Betrayed - by David Horowitz (Hardcover)

About the Book

"America is now engulfed in a crisis that goes to the very foundations of its democracy. To destroy Americans' pride in their heritage and undermine their will to defend it, the attacks on America's heritage begin with malicious slanders intended to turn the American dream of equality and freedom into a 'white supremacist' nightmare. We are told America, from its inception, has been a 'racist' nation that treats minorities as less than human. We are told America deserves to be destroyed. This destructive lie is now the official doctrine of the Biden White House, the 'woke' Pentagon, the Democratic Senate, and the curricula of American schools. America Betrayed restores the true history of America's achievements and its role as a beacon of freedom. Framed by an account of Martin Luther's history and ideas, David Horowitz demonstrates that racial progress in America originates not from Leftist policy but from its founding ideals. America Betrayed is a history and a manifesto focused on the current war to save our country and restore the dignity and freedom of the individual"--Amazon.com.

Review Quotes

PRAISE FOR DAVID HOROWITZ

"America Betrayed displays a level of clarity and wisdom that make it an absolutely MUST READ for every American who cares about their country's future. If you believe the lies about America's founding, you should read this. If you know there is something special about our nation, you must read this. Though it is a short book and David will wince at this comparison, America Betrayed deserves a place among the greatest books of our time explaining and defending freedom, including those by my heroes, Alexander Solzhenitsyn and Natan Sharansky."--CONGRESSMAN LOUIE GOHMERT

About the Author

DAVID HOROWITZ is a noted conservative thinker, writer and commentator and the Founder and CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center in Los Angeles, CA, whose mission is "to defend free societies which are under attack from enemies within and without, both secular and religious"; and further, to defend the principles of individual freedom, the rule of law, private property, limited government and to reestablish academic freedom in American schools. The Freedom Center publishes the online news magazine FrontPageMag.com, where Horowitz serves as Editor-in-Chief.

David Horowitz grew up a "red diaper baby" in a communist community in Sunnyside, Queens, and was one of the founders of the New Left in the 1960s and an editor of its largest magazine, Ramparts; but forced to confront some difficult truths about the political left, Horowitz ultimately found a political and intellectual home as a conservative activist.

Cultural critic Camille Paglia has said of David Horowitz: "I respect the astute and rigorously unsentimental David Horowitz as one of America's most original and courageous political analysts. . . I think that, a century from now, cultural historians will find David Horowitz's spiritual and political odyssey paradigmatic for our time."

Norman Podhoretz, former editor of Commentary magazine, says of Horowitz: "David Horowitz is hated by the Left because he is not only an apostate but has been even more relentless and aggressive in attacking his former political allies than some of us who preceded him in what I once called 'breaking ranks' with that world. He has also taken the polemical and organizational techniques he learned in his days on the left and figured out how to use them against the Left, whose vulnerabilities he knows in his bones."

Horowitz has written well over a dozen books, including The New York Times Bestsellers Blitz: Trump will Smash the Left and Win, and Big Agenda: Trump's Real Plan to Save America, as well as Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America, Unholy Alliance, The Black Book of The American Left, Take No Prisoners, Progressive Racism, The Professors and his celebrated memoirs Morality & Faith and Radical Son.
