Lawrence Lee Rowe, Jr., 310 p., $20, Hardcover What would happen if Washington, Jefferson and Franklin suddenly materialized in the modern world? What would they think? Had their plan for a new nation built on liberty succeeded? Incredibly well researched, you get a deep sense of each Founder’s style, as they discover what America has become in 225 years. The three suddenly find themselves in a forest, a dangerous place in colonial times, where savages could attack at any moment. What were Washington’s first words? “I’m unarmed.” Jefferson responds, “Me too.” Cautiously, they approach a clearing, and stare face to face at... Mount Rushmore! Washington looks up in stunned silence, then at Jefferson, then back again. Jefferson does the same, mouth agape. They begin to suspect they’re somehow in the future. They turn, somewhat ruefully, to Ben, who isn’t sculpted, and he modestly brushes them off, saying, aww, you guys were Presidents. Then Ben reaches in a pocket, and pulls out a handful of papers. Hundred dollar bills—and they stare at the portrait! It just keeps getting better. Rowe has done a spectacular job combining a deep knowledge of colonial times, these men, and a rapidly unfolding palette of the modern world. A perspective on history you have never experienced. Running water, toilet paper, TV, supermarkets ("How do you know which soap to buy?"), cars ("What was that?" "I don't know, it was just a blur.") 27 constitutional amendments (Jefferson can't bring himself to look for weeks), it’s overwhelmingly good. The author even draws on their original writings for some of their dialog! WARNING: This book deals frankly with the racism of slave-owning colonial America, and “the N word” is used accurately in context, which, though artfully done, may be offensive to some readers. ____________________
Boston T. Party, 454 p., $24 The United States has slipped into such a repressive state that citizens are taking action against the worst officials by “disappearing” them. Emulating the Free State Project, (which in 2003 unfortunately picked tiny New Hampshire to launch a constitutional version of the American Dream), libertarians quietly begin moving to Wyoming, and county by county, take control of the government. Once a liberty-loving Governor is in office, they begin making changes that make your mouth water -- and infuriate central federal authorities. The state refuses federal highway funds then run the roads their way, turn down education funds and run the schools their way. A tax credit is offered for marksmanship with a .308, building a significant state militia. They pass a law so anyone openly wearing a sidearm pays no sales tax while shopping at retail! Crime drops near zero. The remaining liberals, infuriated, begin wearing realistic toy guns to beat the tax, then get arrested -- get this -- for tax fraud! It all builds to a thrilling confrontation with federal forces, with the hopes of true freedom in the balance. If a state ever went this way, you’d move there in a heartbeat. This book fills you with a sense of hope, and rekindles the American spirit. (The title comes from the famous Battle at Thermopylae in 480 B.C., where 300 Greeks held off a million invading Persian soldiers at a mountain pass. The Persians said, "Lay down your arms and we will let you live." Spartan King Leonidas replied, Molon labe, "Come and take them." The Greeks were wiped out to a man, but bought enough time for their countrymen to prepare to repel the invasion. _____________________
