The New Road to Serfdom: A Letter of Warning to America by Daniel Hannan

Description

In March 2009 British conservative Daniel Hannan became an overnight celebrity when he assailed Prime Minister Gordon Brown on the floor of the European parliament. In The New Road to Serfdom, Hannan argues forcefully and passionately that Americans must not allow Barack Obama to take us down the road to EU-style social democracy. Instead, he pleads with Americans not to abandon the founding principles that made this country a beacon of liberty for the rest of the world.

This book, by British MP Daniel Hannan, is as Rhonda said in her review from 1/23/12, "... a warning to the American people about not abandoning our founding principles of freedom which will lead us into socialism". It contains a few interesting perspectives, but for the most part, I found it slow and dry.
