PASSING OF HIMMELFARB MEANS LOSS OF IMPORTANT CONSERVATIVE VOICE --LIST OF HER WRITINGS HERE

DEEPLY BIASED AND FLAWED ANALYSIS BY "HEAVY" THINKERS Jeez, it's nice to know these brilliant "news" reporters from the far left newspaper of leftwing record, are on the case and that their far left 1619 analytical historians are endorsing their scholarly reporting on what Bill Batr represents.  Seriously these 'reporters' should offer to sit down with Bill Barr and report on what he actually believes on these subjects, as opposed to reporting as accurate what they think he believes.  Can't do.  That might undo the carefully crafted narrative they want their audience to believe.  Sorta like the Trump/Russia involvement narrative they've been spinning since Trump was elected three years ago.  In the real world these pup reporters and their far left bosses at the Times should apologize for misleading their audience for the last three years, and then sit down with Barr and see what he actually thinks about the various  conclusions they've been feeding their gullible audience.  Instead, they are joining the legions of their fellow reporters who have embraced the Walter Duranty school of faux reporting because it won him a Pulitzer Prize at the time he wrote for the paper of record, despite being responsible for misleading his audience for many, many years.  Fools and their foolish ideas die a hard death.  A pox on their house.

BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS FROM PL:I highly recommend The Austrians: A Thousand-Year Odyssey by Gordon-Brook Sheppard. If his excellemt survey makes you want to read more, there’s a rich selection from which to choose. It includes Hitler and the Habsburgs: The Führer’s Vendetta Against the Austrian Royals by James Longo and A Nervous Splendor: Vienna 1888-1889 by Frederic Morton.

But my favorite book among those I read this year has nothing to do with European history. That book is The City Game: Triumph, Scandal, and a Legendary Basketball Team by Matthew Goodman. ALSO THESE FROM HINDERAKER: HERE
