MY REVIEW OF SEPTEMBER DAY
By Jeff Head
FreeRepublic's own Larry Schweikart (Freeper LS), has really knocked one out of the park with this historical, fictional depiction of events leading up to 911, of the attack itself, and of the aftermath of the attack. To my knowledge it is the first historical, fiction novel dealing with the events...and Larry does it in a grand, and very direct and professional style in keeping with his other great literary works like, "A Patriot's History of the United States," and "America's Victories: Why the U.S. wins wars and will win the War on Terr".

Filled with intrigue and a characterization that represents the epitomy of the critical characters involved on both sides, Schweikart keeps the reader engaged and enthralled with action and suspense, despite the fact that the whole world is already well aware of the events. If you are interested in an exciting, riveting, and intriguing look at 911 and its aftermath, I highly recommend that you read this book.
Great job Larry! Keep them coming.

Thanks for the BUMP...hope you get a chance to read Larry's novel. It's a great read and is unwaivering in its depiction and message regarding not only those who attacked us, but those who stood up to them that day and have been doing so ever since.

If someone like Larry writes a book, then others of us can make announcements regarding it. Larry is a best selling author and is unwaivering in his commitment to conservative ideals and messages within his books.

Also as a history professor with his doctorate, he is rare within academia and the more we can do to foster him and those like him who are dedciated to teaching the youth of this nation the truth about America and why she is great...the better.

Well, not really. But if you click on "Home" and then again on the "Pajama Patrol" badge, you'll find some really cool stuff.

I'm going to order one, real soon, now. I promise.

Thanks Salem.

...and to be sure, and in the interest of complete disclosure, I helped Larry produce and publish this book when the large publication houses turned him down, despite his best selling status.

They didn't want to touch this novel but both Larry and I felt that the story, the truth about what happened that day needs to be out there in as many forms as possible.

Always remember...never forget

Great! I know you will really like it.

Just be careful if you start loaning it out...it may take a while to make the rounds and get back to you! LOL!

Ewww, underground Conservative literature. There is something distinctly Free Republic about that!  !

Thanks Jeff. Had a good booksigning here in Dayton today, and we'll probably do another, perhaps in about three weeks.

Yes there is...and we can get the word out. The "New Media" is shaking the old to the core...partiicularly as owned and operated by the more liberal element of our society.

I told you this privately, but so the Freepers know, I spoke to the editors of "Patriot's History," and there now is a chance we may get that in paperback soon. Stay tuned!

That is wonderful news! PHUSA needs to be available to as many people as possible, particularly in schools, and this will make it eassier and more affordable for teachers to assign it as reading material.

Every bit as good, but, of course, this is a novel---however, as things keep developing in Iraq, my fiction my eventually prove to have been prophetic!

Rankings improbing on Amazon. Hopefully the word will get out regarding the impact and message of the book. It really takes you right back to 911 with many of the passages, and projects the feelings of patriotism and commitment associated with those who defend our liberties.

The more of that...the better!

What!? These guys???

Yeah well, they're "media" too ;^)

Anyway, due to the improper "message" no doubt. Which means it will likely be a winner. Putting on my "get" list. Thanks for the ping.

Actually, Jeff, I'm afraid that like your "Dragon's Fury" series, my fictional developments---who was "really" behind 9/11---are looking more and more accurate all the time.

Well I seldom buy any book that isn't nonfiction, but since the author is the prolific and talented LS I will purchase a copy of September Day.

By the way, Larry, any good progress on the book about the evolution of the media in America?

JLA---"Justice League of America?" One of my early favorite comics, as long as they kept that stupid Superman and Batman out of the story line---actually I spent an hour with Prof. Jim Kuypers of Va Tech, my co-author on this, and we have a deadline to get the material all analyzed by December. I also have discussed with Freeper "Grampa Dave" possibly contributing some of his expertise on newspaper stock prices/values, as he has done a great job or tracking their demise.

The truth is marching on!
