Reviews

"Buchanan is an honest writer who ... minces nothing except an occasional opponent." --The Philadelphia Inquirer"Nobody turns a sharp phrase, drops an historical reference, or makes a literary allusion as naturally as Pat Buchanan." --Human Events"Buchanan is a muscular writer, fully in command of the English language he feels is under siege. He is adept at linking history, statistics, and the writings of philosophers and economists to proffer forceful arguments." --The Washington Post"Mr. Buchanan ... is positively fearless. He is also right." --Tony Blankley, The Washington Times"His approach is that of a true conservative, offering a perspective rooted in American tradition initiated by Washington." --Kirkus Reviews"Suicide of a Superpower traces the changes in governance and culture in America that foreshadow a decline of epic proportions. ... Buchanan is no stranger to controversy. Nor is he prone to exaggerate. The crises he describes are real, and he is not afraid to say they 'may prove too much for our democracy to cope with.'" --Jack Kenny, The New American Magazine"A stunning Jeremiad on America's decline, written with characteristic muscle and wit." --Timothy Stanley, The Telegraph (UK)"Buchanan offers an astute diagnosis of America's problems and gives constructive suggestions to put us back on track." --Virgil Goode (Former Congressman R-VA), The Daily Caller on Suicide of a Superpower"Well-written, well researched and highly persuasive." --Tom Piatak, Chronicles Magazine on Suicide of a Superpower
