A New Icon

I feared that by exposing the Democrats as faux liberals, Stephen Marshall would bring me into even a deeper state of despair. As I read, I found myself in just the opposite state -- happily taking in every page with new hope that there exists here in America this level of awareness and acuity and most importantly, passion. If this man understands society on this level, there is the possibility of nurturing and spreading this wisdom. I find I have someone to follow. If you need something to believe in, read this book.

A must read

This is the story of the death of American Liberalism, told by some of the very people who helped kill it. Far from the typical liberal claptrap or conservative diatribe, Marshall's fiercely independant examination of the left's rightward drift is a unique, character driven narrative that keeps you turning pages.

GREAT READ - both informative and entertaining!

Marshall's look at the liberal elite and why they have turned against their once radical ways is incredibly informative, well researched, insightful, and best of all, a fun read! Great for political animals and novices alike, Marshall tackles a unique subject matter with flair and style. I highly recommend!

How liberalism lost its soul

Don't let the title fool you. Wolves in Sheep's Clothing is not a neo-conservative diatribe against bleeding-heart liberals who don't toe the party line with the current administration in the White House. Rather, Wolves in Sheep's Clothing is about the anti-establishment leaders who protested the Vietnam War, but are now willing to go to war to advance the cause of free-market capitalism. Without providing cookie-cutter solutions to the world's problems, Marshall probes the deeper questions regarding liberal interventionism and laissez-faire capitalism that are currently lost in the facade of today's culture war, which, according to Marshall, is simply a masquerade to keep the public from discovering that both parties are part of the same corporate industrial establishent. Not only does Marshall provoke the reader to ponder the place of authentic liberalism in contemporary American politics, he also challenges the reader to re-examine the messianic complex that many Americans have regarding America's role in spreading freedom and democracy to the world. This is a must-read for those who wonder why the vast majority of the non-Western world resist America's version of liberal democracy. Aaron D. Taylor, author of Alone with A Jihadist: A Biblical Response To Holy War

A gonzo intellectual journey

Wolves is a must read. So many of the political books that come my way are either redundant or homework. Marshall doesn't shove his opinion down your throat. He takes you along a real intellectual journey of discovery. It will get your neurons firing on multiple levels as you are challenged to figure out where you stand on the most important issues of the day. The section with Hitchens (and his brother) is brilliant, and most illuminating piece on the controversial writer ever written.
