Mr. Donovan does an excellent job describing Barry Goldwaters platform of politics. Reading this book in modern day provides a look back into what previous generations thoughts and concerns were for the future. Perhaps the most frightening part of reading this book is the realization of the authors fears in modern times.
The Vikings, by Frank R. Donovan (audio book). Quite simply, this is an overview of the Vikings in their heyday: the ninth and tenth centuries. It covers in broad outline (and scant) detail the Vikings as they used superior ships, daring, and quests for adventure (and silver, gold, slaves, and goods) to conquer and inhabit lands near and far. Over the centuries when they were dominant they roamed through all of England and Scotland, and established footholds in Ireland, Iceland, North show more America, Greenland, France, and traveled and fought as far as Spain, Italy, North Africa, and Constantinople. This book, given it’s sparse detail, is a good launching point for further reading and research. show less
