Books you should read- a suggested list from Chuck Baldwin.

My Latest Suggested Reading List

By Chuck Baldwin

Faithful readers of this column might recall my column of last year
where I listed several books that I found to be helpful. See the list
at:

http://chuckbaldwinlive.com/home/?p=27

So, to build on last year's list, here is a current list. These are
books that I have read over the course of last year, or that I am
currently reading, or that are on my short list of books to soon read.
Please understand that the books listed herein may or may not imply my
personal endorsement. Some I will wholeheartedly endorse. Others I
will vehemently reject. And others: I will not know until I've read
them. Some of these books I've read before and think they are worth
another read. Obviously, if I'm taking the time to read any of them, I
must feel that there is good reason to do so, as I consider my time
the most valuable commodity that I have.

I remember one of my college professors saying, "A man is the sum
total of the people he associates with and the books he reads. Choose
both wisely." That proverb has stayed with me all these years. So, on
that note, here is my suggested reading list (in no particular order,
except for the first two):

Freedom for a Change
By Timothy Baldwin

My youngest son, attorney Tim Baldwin, has written a book that has
been published recently. It is an exhaustive masterpiece with over 500
pages and 1,000 annotations. In my opinion, it is destined to be a
classic textbook on American history and law. I urge every reader to
obtain this recently published book. If you can read only one book
about American history this year, this is the one to read! Order Tim's
book on his web site at:

Other books to read:

Life of Washington
"A rare, faith-filled, historic biography of America's first
President, George Washington. Originally published in 1842."
By Anna C. Reed

Secession
"How Vermont and All the Other States Can Save Themselves from the
Empire"
By Thomas H. Naylor

War Is A Racket
By Brigadier General Smedley D. Butler

Every American should read this classic. I try to stay reminded of
General Butler's wisdom by reading his book every year or two.

Confessions of an Economic Hit Man
"The inside story of how America turned from a respected republic
into a feared empire."
By John Perkins

I haven't finished this one yet, but I suspect it is going to be
added to my all-time "must-read" list. Wow! What a book!

Never Again
"Securing America and Restoring Justice"
By Former Attorney General John Ashcroft

I do not recommend this book; I read it to get a better glimpse into
the mind and philosophy of a professing Christian who can lend his
support to such unconstitutional, liberty-killing measures as the
Patriot Act, and thereby become an enemy to freedom. Ashcroft is
typical of many self-serving Christians who conveniently side with Big
Government elitists and globalists and justify it under the rubric of
"national security." The chapter regarding my good friend, true
American patriot, man of God, and all-around very good guy, Dr. Greg
Dixon, is especially disheartening. Reading his book confirmed what I
already knew: Ashcroft, Bush, and rest of these Big Government neocons
are a despicable lot.

Boston's Gun Bible
By Boston T. Party

A terrific manual on the Second Amendment, shooting, guns,
self-defense, etc. Every American who claims to love liberty should
read the chapter entitled "How To Become A Rifleman." That chapter
alone is worth the price of the book.

Flyboys
"A True Story of Courage"
By James Bradley

Tom Malone
"The Preacher From Pontiac"
By Joyce Vick

Dr. Malone was one of my mentors. I had the privilege of sitting
under his ministry from 1971 to 1973. He may have been the greatest
pulpiteer of the 20th century. He grew up "dirt-poor" and became one
of the most respected preachers in America. He was also a scholar and
accomplished pilot. He passed away January 7, 2007, at the age of 91.
He is one of my spiritual heroes.

The Book That Made America
"How the Bible Formed Our Nation"
By Jerry Newcombe

Posterity
"Letters of Great Americans to Their Children"
By Dorie McCullough Lawson

Citizen Handbook
"An End to the Crime of Government"
By John Conway

Obama
"Why Black America Should Have Doubts"
By William Owens, Jr.

The Pentagon's New Map
"War and Peace in the Twenty-first Century"
By Thomas P.M. Barnett

This is an insider's look into how the US military is being used to
create "globalization." If you don't believe elitists are preparing
for global government, read this book. It is not written by a "fringe,
conspiracy-nut," but by a senior strategic researcher and professor at
the US Naval War College. Read it and tremble. Then get mad and start
RESISTING!

Patriots
"A Novel of Survival in the Coming Collapse"
By James Wesley, Rawles

Catastrophe
"How Obama, Congress, And The Special Interests Are Transforming . .
. A Slump Into A Crash, Freedom Into Socialism, and Disaster Into A
Catastrophe . . . And How to Fight Back"
By Dick Morris & Eileen McGann

Freedom And Capitalism
"Essays on Christian Politics and Economics"
By John W. Robbins

*Two Books on the Elements of Universal Jurisprudence By Samuel
Pufendorf (January 8, 1632 - October 13, 1694)

*The Rights of War and Peace
By Hugo Grotius (April 10, 1583 - August 28, 1645)

*The Law of Nations
Emer de Vattel (April 25, 1714 - December 28, 1767)

*Discourses on Government
Algernon Sidney (January 14 or 15, 1623 - December 7, 1683)

*Second Treatise of Government
By John Locke (August 29, 1632 - October 28, 1704)

This is another one that I try to read every year or two.

*Among others, these 5 classics are books that our Founding Fathers
read. They provide scriptural, historical, philosophical, moral, and
political principles necessary to the understanding of American law,
jurisprudence, and constitutional government. Caution: reading these
books may turn one into a patriot in the similitude of Washington,
Henry, and Jefferson. The books can be obtained very reasonably, but,
if you have to, sell your clothes to get them. But, be advised, you
will not be able to read these books quickly; and you must be prepared
to rethink virtually everything you've been taught in school, read in
newspapers, or watch on television.

They Preached Liberty
"An anthology of timely quotations from New England ministers of the
American Revolution on the subject of liberty: its source, nature,
obligations, types, and blessings."
Edited by Franklin P. Cole

I wish every preacher in America would read this book, and also this
one:

Political Sermons of the American Founding Era, 1730-1805 Edited by
Ellis Sandoz

America's Financial Reckoning Day
"How you can survive America's monetary and political decline in the
21st Century"
By Charles H. Coppes

America for Sale
"Fighting the New World Order, Surviving a Global Depression, and
Preserving USA Sovereignty"
By Jerome R. Corsi

Christ The Sum of All Spiritual Things
By Watchman Nee

I love anything written by Nee. This will be an umpteenth reading of
this one.

 Luther's Prayers
Edited by Herbert F. Brokering

 Patton's Principles
"A Handbook for Managers Who Mean It!"
By Porter B. Williamson

This is another book I try to read every year or so.

Hitler's Cross
"The revealing story of how the Cross of Christ was used as a symbol
of the Nazi agenda."
By Erwin W. Lutzer

As I have said many times, if you don't read any other book besides
the Bible this year, read Hitler's Cross--and Tim's book, of course.

There you go, Pilgrims. Let's read some good books this year. And
let's use what we learn so that we might work together to help save
liberty from the elitists and globalists during 2010. What say you?
