Tony, I found the description of your book to be very interesting. If I am not mistaken an author like yourself might be curious about the broader spectrum of life interests reflected in other writers’ work. The 1st volume of my book “400 Years of New York History: A Pictorial Guide” is the retrospective of Dutch NY and the attentive portrayal of its citizenry. Would you be interested in exchanging reviews?

Your book sounds interesting ( I'm a big non-fiction reader. Mostly on the theme of coming world change, hence economics, energy, climate change etc, but I also like history).
So YES I'm interested. Just let me know how.

Regards, Tony(less)

Tony’s Quotes

“Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don't want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.

Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”
― Hermann Goering, Germany Reborn
