<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"The social elites want evangelicals to be as dumb as they suspect they are. But when a person comes along who proves that tale false, which Taunton clearly does...they simply don't know what to do."<br> --<i>The Federalist</i></b> <p/>A battle rages for the heart and soul of America. For one group, the idea of "American Exceptionalism" is dead. Some never tire of lecturing us about how out-of-step America is with the rest of the world and how she needs to get with it. Worse, America, they say, is bad for the world. Her freedom and prosperity are merely historical accidents. <p/>Of course, this narrative presupposes there are better places in the world to live. Are there? Were Alec Baldwin to leave the country permanently as he once promised, where would he go?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Larry Taunton--historian, columnist, and a man of abiding Christian faith--traveled (often at great risk to himself) to twenty-seven nations in order to hold a mirror up to the United States of America and ask: Is America Good and is America Great? Mark Twain did much the same more than a century ago. Twain's and Taunton's conclusions are identical: There is no place--literally No Place--like home. <i>Around the World in (More Than) 80 Days</i> is fabulous. It's going on my shelf next to <i>The Innocents Abroad</i>." <p/> --Paul Reid, co-author with William Manchester, The Last Lion: Winston Spencer Churchill: Defender of the Realm, 1940-1965<br><br>"The problem with being an American is that familiarity too often breeds contempt because we see our faults up close and take our virtues and blessings for granted. Larry Alex Taunton has provided a cure by lifting us up out of America, and taking us on a long and insightful tour of the world to see how other places actually stack up. Take the tour with him, and gain some very much needed perspective. You may find--as he did--there's no place like home." <p/> --Benjamin Wiker, Ph.D., author of 10 Books That Screwed Up the World<br><br>"America--the freest, most tolerant and inclusive nation on earth--is under siege by radicals who make no effort to conceal their determination to destroy it. Larry Alex Taunton has provided patriotic Americans with a powerful weapon to defeat our enemies. Buy this book to arm yourself for the defense of your freedoms. Buy a second copy for a friend." <p/> --David Horowitz, author of Dark Agenda: The War to Destroy Christian America<br><br>"To truly understand how and why America is exceptional you could travel to country after country and see for yourself. You might even want to write a brilliant book about it! But lucky for you my friend, Larry Taunton has done all the traveling for you--think of the money you've saved!--and has written that brilliant book, making the case so clear that you owe it to yourself to grab a copy and read it! Please do!" <p/> --Eric Metaxas, host of The Eric Metaxas Show; author of Bonhoeffer and If You Can Keep It<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Larry Alex Taunton is a freelance columnist with contributions to <i>USA Today</i>, Fox News, <i>First Things</i>, <i>The Atlantic</i>, <i>CNN</i>, and <i>The American Spectator</i>.
