Description

Nothing offends liberals and leftists more than Western imperialism--it is racism, sexism, and chauvinism all in one. And of course the epitome of Western imperialism is the British Empire, the biggest empire the world has ever known, covering at its height a quarter of the globe's surface and ruling a quarter of the world's population.

In The Politically Incorrect Guide to the British Empire, bestselling author H. W. Crocker III exposes--in brawling, rambunctious style--how the British Empire was actually one of the greatest establishers and defenders of freedom in history.

In this new PI Guide listeners will discover:

-How, far from being anti-imperialists, America's colonists were more British than the British--demanding their rights as Englishmen and envisioning a continent-wide empire (a word the Founders used with approval)

-How Gandhi praised the British Empire for what it had done for India

-How the British Empire handled today's troubled hot spots--like Africa, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, and Pakistan

-What the world would be like if the British Empire were still governing a quarter of the globe--hint: everyone would be a lot better off

So strap on your pith helmet for a rollicking ride through some of history's most colorful events. The Politically Incorrect Guide to the British Empire provides a panoramic and provocative view of four hundred years of history that will delight and amuse, educate and entertain.
