Five Thousand
Year Leap |
The Five
Thousand Year Leap
by W. Cleon Skousen
30 Year Anniversary Edition with Foreword by Glenn Beck
NEW in 2009! THE FIVE THOUSAND YEAR LEAP 30 Year
Anniversary Edition with Glenn Beck’s Foreword! No other edition offers the
revisions and updates of this remarkable book detailing how the Founding Fathers
used 28 principles to create a 5000 year leap in freedom, prosperity, and
progress; all based upon morality, faith, and ethics. THIS BONUS EDITION
INCLUDES: Two landmark addresses by author, Dr. W. Cleon Skousen never before
offered in print, along with the full text of US Constitution and Declaration of
Independence.
The Five Thousand Year Leap will take you by the hand as you discover the ideals
of the Founding Fathers and their 28 principles for success. The values explored
in detail by Dr. Skousen range from the Founder's prerequisite that the
Constitution was designed for a moral people, to a government empowered by the
people with checks and balances, along with an understanding of the critical
nature of fiscal responsibility and family values. This book sums up the secrets
to what James Madison called a miracle.

www.alexrose.com
Alexander Rose's peculiar
"biography" is not written for gun enthusiasts--though
they'll certainly enjoy it--but for anyone interested
American history from George Washington to the Wild West to
Iraq... Once you start, American Rifle will have to be pried
from your cold, dead hands before you put it down. - Jon

Four Hundred Years Of Gun Control - Why Isn't It Working?
by Howard Nemerov
"If you have any interest in the 2nd Amendment and the
results of Gun Control, or the arguments put forth to
justify such either side, this book is a MUST HAVE for your
library." - Robert Pratt, Pratt on Texas
|
 |
Slaughter at Goliad: The Mexican Massacre of 400
Texas Volunteers by Jay A. Stout
"Stout has penned a well written
book about an important but often overlooked part of the
Texas Revolution. The Slaughter at Goliad is as important,
or more so, as what happened at Alamo in explaining the type
of characters who were leading revolution in Texas.
The title is quite fair; it was a slaughter by the Mexican
forces ordered by the shame of Mexico, Santa Anna. Even
today, Mexican school textbooks teach the history of Santa
Anna as largely an embarrassment and betrayal of the
national history." - Robert Pratt, Pratt on Texas

Gov. Rick Perry's: On My Honor: Why the American
Values of the Boy Scouts Are Worth Fighting for
|
 |
"Seven Ox Seven" by Peter Ritzer
"This is not just another historical
fiction book. It is an authentic and compelling look at the men and
women who represented the best of Texas, and America, in facing
life's great challenges with more faith, determination, and bravery
then most modern Americans can imagine. Ritzer spins a tale rooted
in the True Texas few understand. His outsider, Roman Catholic,
traditional Republican take on Texas history adds a new dimension
I've wanted to read but have not found in other novels. Once you
become friends with the novel's characters, you'll want to cheer for
them, pray for them, hug them, help them, and know them as
neighbors." - Robert Pratt |

The Almanac of Political Corruption, Scandals & Dirty Politics by Kim Long |
 |
The Human Face of God by David R. Cruz
Father Cruz serves in Lubbock, Texas
"This book is a little gem. Well written, with many examples and
personal stories, it truly brings out the human face of God. At the
same time it illustrates simply, but powerfully, how we are expected
(and enabled!) to continue the mission of Christ here on earth."
Paul Berbier, s.s.s. Editor, Emmanuel Magazine |

A Different Point of Blue by D.G. Flewellyn
"D.G. shows his incredible intellect and
depth of emotion along with masterful musicianship in this CD.
"Daddy Still Sings" is among the greatest
honor-thy-father-and-mother songs ever penned and recorded. No
exaggeration. It will have the toughest hombre in tears. Simply
beautiful. D.G. has given us a window into the bittersweet memories
of our parents from the honest and loving perspective possible." -

Dancer, Texas Pop. 81
Dancer, Texas covers two days in the
life of four members of the graduating class of Dancer, Texas's high
school class. (There's five members in total). Dancer is one of
those small, forgotten town in West Texas -- the type of town that's
watched its fortunes fall along with the oil industry and where
everyone, at some point, plans to leave but most never do. The four
friends have all sworn to leave after graduation and during this
day, they discover the beauty of their past and the hope of their
uncertain futures. Its an amazingly low-key film, the type that
sneaks up on you and, in its low-key way, is amazingly compelling. -
