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.

American Rifle: A Biography by Alexander Rose American Rifle: A Biography by Alexander Rose
Amazon Best of the Month, October 2008.
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 Foro at Amazon.com

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 Stout 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
 


On My Honor 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
Wayworn Traveler by Kim Townsend

A fine Lubbock-based singer-songwriter and listener to Pratt on Texas. I use several songs from this CD on the program including VIVA!

The Eagle & the Snake: Songs of the Texians by Brian Burns

:...a love letter to the state of Texas." - Amazon reviewer

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." - Robert Pratt

The Real Buddy Holly Story
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. - Amazon reviewer
