A quick look online leads me to believe this is a right-wing rant, with positive reviews posted by shills, with not a single review by a professional reviewer. I can't even tell if it's from a real publishing house.

So, no thanks.

Regnery is a real publisher and the book is an autobiography, not a rant.

I didn't see the publisher listed, but if it's Regnery, they have a reputation for publishing crap, especially right-wing crap.

P.T. Barnum was intimately familiar with the sort of person that would pony up for a book by this duo.
