The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Vietnam War by Phillip Jennings Paperback - (February 2010) - $19.95 Think the United States lost the Vietnam War? Think again. To listen to today’s leftist historians and liberal media, the Vietnam War was a tragic and dismal failure for the U.S. Yet, as author and Vietnam veteran Phillip Jennings shows inThe Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Vietnam War, Vietnam was not a hopeless, highly-protested, useless fight we lost. Our soldiers were not intent on committing heinous acts against the poor and helpless women and children. American soldiers were actually well-liked—as well as very well-educated. And the whole idea that we lost the Vietnam War? It’s completely false. By any traditional definition of war, we won. In this controversial new “P.I.G.”, Jennings exposes the truth about Nixon’s Cambodia bombings, the Pentagon Papers, Kennedy’s waffling team of “whiz kids”, the Kent State Massacre, the real effect of the TET offensive, and more.

The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to The Sixties by Jonathan Leaf Paperback - (August 2009) - $19.95 In preparation for the 40th anniversary of Woodstock, they're rolling out the old lie that free sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll define the '60s. And now they're brainwashing yet another generation of Americans.

The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Founding Fathers by Brion McClanahan Paperback - (June 2009) - $19.95 As July 4th approaches and President Obama "sells" his trillion-dollar health care reform package to the American people, equivocates on Iran, and faces a rising unemployment rate, you can't help but ask, what would the Founding Father's do?

The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Great Depression and the New Deal by Robert P. Murphy Paperback - (April 2009) - $19.95 No economic myth these days is more pernicious than the myth that the free market caused the Great Depression and the New Deal got us out of it. That, as economist Robert P. Murphy points out is flat-out false. In The Politically Incorrect Guide to the Great Depression and the New Deal he provides irrefutable evidence that not only did government interference with the market cause the Great Depression (and our current economic collapse), but Herbert Hoover’s and Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s big government policies afterwards made it much longer and much worse (just as President Barack Obama’s extraordinary expansion of government promises to do today). Perhaps even more compelling, Murphy exposes the untold story behind the New Deal—how it operated by force, and why what’s really at stake is not only our economy but our liberty. The real “lessons of the Great Depression” are not what you’ve been taught.

The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Civil War by H.W. Crocker III Paperback - (October 2008) - $19.95 If you suspect that most of the conventional "wisdom" about the Civil War, slavery, and states’ rights has been hijacked by Northeast liberals, then you're going to love The Politically Incorrect GuideTM to the Civil War. This provocative and entertaining new "P.I.G." exposes the real reasons the South tried to secede and why the war between the states was not really about abolishing slavery. Charging through battlefields and bunkers, bestselling author H.W. Crocker III treats readers to a rousing, rollicking guide to the great and terrible war that shaped America. He also explains why the Southern states had more in common with our Founding Fathers and the spirit of the Declaration of Independence than most history textbooks admit.  The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Western Civilization by Anthony Esolen Paperback - (June 2008) - $19.95 "The glory that was Greece...the grandeur that was Rome" — not so long ago, Western culture was the foundation of every educated American. But not anymore. Plato's teachings? Irrelevant. Roman culture? Chauvinistic. If there's one thing liberal professors and pundits can't stand—it's Western civilization.  Coming to its rescue is The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Western Civilization—the essential sourcebook for defending everything from Christianity and the Classics to Sophocles and the Founding Fathers. And who better to defend our heritage than one of America's foremost Western civilization scholars: Professor Anthony Esolen.

The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Middle East by Martin Sieff Paperback - (January 2008) - $19.95 The Middle East: it’s a region that’s almost never off the front pages, yet many Americans know surprisingly little about it.

Beginning with the Ottoman Empire and leading up to 2008, Sieff navigates every politically correct roadway, busting myth after myth as he leads us on a journey through one of the world’s roughest neighborhoods.

The Bible is the source for the Western ideas of justice, science, and democracy, Hutchinson argues, and without it, Western civilization would not exist.

But now intrepid hunter and pro-hunting activist Frank Miniter sets the record straight. In The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Hunting, he details the concrete benefits that hunting provides to all of us—even how it helps the environment.

The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Global Warming and Environmentalism by Christopher C. Horner Paperback - (February 2007) - $19.95 The Democrats are crying “global warming doomsday!” again. Nancy Pelosi wants to spend taxpayer dollars on a global warming panel…but it’s snowing in Malibu, and the roads are freezing in Dallas. This hysteria is all a bunch of hot air, says global warming legislation and regulation expert Christopher C. Horner in the latest installment of the bestselling Politically Incorrect Guide™ series, The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to Global Warming and Environmentalism.
