"Disappearing Acts" is about how inconvenient facts, those that don’t fit into a culturally/politically/historically/racially favored story line or theme, are often disappeared so as to make an implausible theme plausible, and how the phenomena of fact disappearing permeates and despoils our entire culture! Disappearing Acts begins with a “pre-apology” for the book’s often angry tone, followed by a discussion of and a working definition for patriotism. The author argues that if one is a true patriot, one has to be angry at what has become of the United States government."Disappearing Acts" asks the questions that are never asked (is the World War II generation really America’s greatest), and challenges the “conventional wisdom” in ways that are both unique and thought provoking. Disappearing Acts quotes Americans as divergent in their views as Pat Buchanan, the late Jerry Farwell and Bob Novak versus Eugene Robinson and Keith Olberman! Rather then dissect and dismantle the arguments of people the author disagrees with, Disappearing Acts challenges the reader to contemplate what it would mean if said arguments are both true and have a wider application then the narrow focus or limited application advocated by those who propagate these arguments (Jerry Farwell often warned the God would harm America for this or that political decision, well what else might trigger God’s wrath)."Disappearing Acts" challenges the reader to think critically about America, what it means to be a patriot, and to contemplate a way forward that recognizes the American-ness of all Americans. The author believes that the “isms”, “phobias” and greed which permeates our culture, while providing a short term and short sighted benefit to some, are ultimately destructive to our culture and are at odds with our nation’s founding documents!Interested parties can contact the book order department directly at: 800-834-1803 or via email at (to purchase the book now) bookorders@rosedogbooks.com.
