Lawrence Clayton's New Book 'The Push Back' is an Insightful Volume That Reminds Readers of the Values and Institutions That Led the Nation to Greatness
TUSCALOOSA, Ala., July 12, 2022 (Newswire.com) - Fulton Books author Lawrence Clayton, a professor emeritus of history, has completed his most recent book "The Push Back": a potent nonfiction that identifies and examines social problems that today's generation has been facing. Divided into ten sections where each chapter is a stand-alone, Clayton compares and contrasts the past norms to the modern culture. He also allows his readers to ponder whether the old times were indeed much better than today.
"As our country goes through trying times, the author put together the best of his op-ed columns, published in his local newspaper, The Tuscaloosa News, which deals with the issues facing our nation today. Clayton ranges all the way from the issues very close to home and family, such as what is being taught in our schools, colleges, and universities, to issues straddling the incredibly complex and often rancorous events in public life, from the presidency of the nation all the way down to local school boards. He not only identifies and analyzes issues we are all, more or less, familiar with, like Project 1619, critical race theory, the programs of diversity, equity, and inclusion in virtually all colleges and universities across the country, but the reader will also find suggestions and remedies for a world that has become almost dysfunctional or dystopic in today's language. These suggestions range all the way from establishing new programs of study that emphasize our traditional values, like liberty, equality, the right to vote, personal responsibility, and furthermore, call for a restoration of the home and religion to fashionably modern concerns with sexism, racism, and other expressions leaving young people at loose ends on who they are and what is it that made the nation so prosperous and generous until this day. As a historian, he does not ignore what went wrong over the years in the making of our people but deals with them honestly and explores many answers suggested by a close reading of both natural law and Christian Scripture."
Published by Fulton Books, Lawrence Clayton's book is an edifying read that aims to recover and apply those principles that gave the nation so much glory and power in the past.
It's a meaningful piece written for everyone.
