 Required Reading February 18, 2010
Charles E. Whitman (Saint Peters, MO, US)
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book covers twenty-eight principles that the United States was founded upon. Every American who has the privilege of voting should be required to read this book. The author suggests that the unique form of government established in the United States is the reason our country has prospered so wonderfully since the government was formed. A great introductory book which will cause me to further investigate the founders of our country.
Worth every cent February 13, 2010

The 5000 Year Leap is a profound addition to any study on Americas origins and the faith of the founders. Well researched and presented. All sources are cited thoughtfully and with detail. Any one who doubts the message of this book has a plethera of sources that they can research on their own. I did on a few and was satisfied with my findings corroborating the text with the source.
 Great Political review of the last 200+ years. February 12, 2010

Some of the ideas discussed may seem outdated and I can't say I agree 100% with every idea expressed, but if you ask me this would be a great book for anyone wanting a better understanding of the principles that made America the greatest nation in the world, and possibly in all of history. It's full of great Historical facts that every High School student should be learning, but probably isn't.

 A Disappointing Reading February 8, 2010
Brian J. Landsberger (Las Vegas, NV)
2 out of 15 found this review helpful
For anyone looking for a rigorous review of principles of freedom this book will be a disappointment. No real analysis is completed in the book. Excessive use of quotations is used to convince the reader that if several people say something, it must be true. The book is more of a incomplete survey of selected writing use to promote a viewpoint. The book is really more of a religious book promoting Christianity as the solution to most everything coupled with some obvious generally accepted concepts of government. Because of the unusual political and economic situation created in the last decade in America restating those obvious concepts is perhaps the one redeeming value of the book. Unfortunately, most of the concepts contained in the 28 principle are not well developed, or in some cases just prejudicial.
