A classic account of history and consequences for the future. America is
disintegrating. The "one Nation under God, indivisible" of the Pledge
of Allegiance is passing away. In a few decades, that America will be
gone forever. In its place will arise a country unrecognizable to our
parents. This is the thrust of Pat Buchanan's Suicide of a Superpower,
his most controversial and thought-provoking book to date.
Buchanan
traces the disintegration to three historic changes: America's loss of
her cradle faith, Christianity; the moral, social, and cultural collapse
that have followed from that loss; and the slow death of the people who
created and ruled the nation. And as our nation disintegrates, our
government is failing in its fundamental duties, unable to defend our
borders, balance our budgets, or win our wars.
How Americans are
killing the country they profess to love, and the fate that awaits us if
we do not turn around, is what Suicide of a Superpower is all about.
