Description
Andrew Bolt is Australias most prominent and controversial commentator. In this second book of columns and reflections, Bolt is again in the front lines of our most urgent political and social debates, from Islam and immigration to the green movement and the rise of the slacktivist. But he also reveals his more personal side -- the experiences that have shaped his values and love for this country. For some this book is ammunition. For others it is fair warning. But for everyone it is a test of their own values -- and the reasons they hold them. Bolts columns are published nationally in News Corp newspapers, including Melbournes Herald Sun, Sydneys Daily Telegraph and Brisbanes Courier Mail. He also runs Australias most-read political blog and hosts two week night shows -- The Bolt Report on Sky News and a national Macquarie Radio show with Steve Price.
