I have, for some time, believed that the youth of today are not informed of past history. I have met young people who do not know who Hitler was or even the reasons that wars were started. If the school systems will not teach our youth, then who will?
I think that parents in today's world have a responsibility to teach their children of past facts and make them aware of what can happened if these same warning signs show up again.
Hitler had a goal to take over the teaching of the youth of Germany. Our youth should know this. When youth is brainwashed, a young person believes what he/she has been taught and not how to think for themselves.
I recently read a book that startlingly made the same references that I had always believed in. The book is entitled "Last Wish by Elizabeth Kilbride."
I am a publisher, but this book was not published by my company. I just happened to read it. It brought to light many thoughts that have run through my head such as; will our children know when danger is upon them? Will our youth understand government and its control on its people? Will our youth stand up for the brave men and women who died in service for their country?
The only way the answer to my questions can be yes, is if young people today learn from what has past. There is another book that I did publish entitled, "A Letter to the Class of '65 by Michael Duane Small." It shows that we learn the present from the past. We are aware of what government policies are, if we know how they originated.
In Small's book, it shows that history and past politics have had a big impact on our lives today; most of us just do not realize it. We fail to understand the importance of past government, of what is and will take into effect in our future. If people actually can earn more money, why is it that they cannot find the way to do so? Small seems to know the answers and you can, as well in this most interesting book. Learn many historical facts and political views in this much anticipated book release. Learn how 'We the People' can re-gain control of our own destiny. We must take control by being informed. What better way to know why government is leading us in the wrong direction than by reading this book?
This is a book that people who want to know what has happened to make this country the way it is today will want to read. Michael Duane Small uses quotes and refers to reference books to let you know that you are reading the truth.
What has happened in the past in government, will open your eyes as to what is happening now has come to be. Did you know what made the banking system run the way it does. Do you know who has control of it? Do you know how the money printing in this country is run? All the answers to these and more questions lie within the pages of this fascinating book written by a very intelligent man.
This is one of the most informative books that can be read today or in the distant future. It takes you into a part of American history that along with real conspiracy theories of murderous assassinations cannot be denied.
There is some extremely well written political poetry that goes along with the letter that will really have you thinking. One must ponder over the poetry because it has deep embedded meaning. The author's comments take you deeper into the whole book. He explains the reason for writing the poems and brings a greater light to what they are saying. You will also learn of the awards this very talented man has earned.
In "LAST WISH" by Elizabeth Kilbride, the central character, Kendra Doyle, is a reporter with a burden on her shoulders of recently losing her loving husband Joe in a traffic accident. Joe had been good to Kendra and making it in the world was not as easy now that she was alone. She agrees to take in two of her friends as tenants and that way they can all save money. She also takes on a second job where she learns she is not the only one in dire straits.
Politics makes news and this subject is hot. The story refers to many interesting situations in government that are current and of interest in today's society although they are fictional. Terrorism seeps its way into the plot.
Kendra meets with a law firm to discuss the terms of her Grandfather, Saimus Doyle's, will. Her parents and grandmother had died and he was her last remaining relative to bring her up. There is more to just inheriting money here. Many steps must be fulfilled before Kendra can obtain the money. One of these steps is to examine the contents of a 'box' left to her from her grandfather that contains many interesting things. That is where this story grabs you.
Kendra is off on an exciting and enlightening trip to Europe with expenses paid. She finds some war details she has never even considered through letters written by her grandfather and seeing some relics of history. Learn fictional but historic details, which resemble facts that have actually happened, and understand more than you thought possible of what horrific deeds occurred during war in Europe with Kendra. When she returns to her home in the United States, find out how she copes with what she has learned and about to change her life in this intriguing novel.
If you like to know your politics and how America became the country she is today, I strongly recommend these books. If you let the young people in your life read these books, well, that is even better. I say enlighten our youth; that is the way to the future. Books will help teach our youth. Use this tool as well as talking to them.
