FATAL MISCONCEPTION- MATTHEW CONNELLY
- "Passionate and troubling...Connelly tells the story of the 20th-century international movement to control population, which he sees as an oppressive movement that failed to deliver the promised economic and environmental results...Ambitious, exhaustively researched and clearly written, this is a highly important book."

THE WORD OF THE LORD IS UPON ME- Jonathan Rieder
- "An important book on King's rhetoric, [it] offers a more complex view of King than the sanitized version that is so popular, especially among conservative commentators."
--E. J. Dionne Jr., Washington Post
- "[A] rich, thoughtful new book...The Word of the Lord Is Upon Me is an extremely learned book...Anyone who takes the time to peruse it will have no doubt: The real Martin Luther King Jr. more often sounded like Jeremiah Wright than like Barack Obama."

THE ROAD TO DALLAS- DAVID KAISER
- "A thorough recounting of facts interspersed with interpretations and opinions that carry the weight of someone who knows how to analyze history...Kaiser isn't the first to suggest JFK was assassinated by a conspiracy of anti-Castro Cubans upset at Kennedy's failure to eliminate Fidel Castro and a Mafia enraged by the obsession of JFK's attorney general, his brother Robert Kennedy, to attack organized crime. But Kaiser may be the first to reach the depth of reporting the facts that support this theory."
