From the Publisher
A Culture War is raging in America today. Beneath the polished exterior of America’s most cherished institutions lies a burgeoning cultural movement striving to countermand the minds of our citizens, beginning with our very youngest. This Invasion Within has already infiltrated our schools, our media, and even our families, and threatens to bring down our society if left unchecked. Most frightening is the Elitists who, at the helm of this invasion’s feigned enlightenment, try to bestow insidious and deeply harmful dogmas upon everyday Americans. They do not hesitate in knocking from their pedestals every freedom and every value for which our forefathers fought the Revolution. The enemies are the Elitists, smug in their attitude as they mug us of our moral values, who have infiltrated our schools, churches, boardrooms, and media: I call them "Smuggers." Their original strategy was formulated in the 1930s, and has since spread as they continue to poison the individual’s religious and cultural beliefs and thus dissolve the structure of the traditional family—and our nation—from within. The Culture War will not stop with the annihilation of the American Way, but will merely use our society as a foothold to obliterate Western civilization as we know it. The casualties of this war—the increasing divorce rate, irresponsible parenting, out-of-control children, abortions, drug use, corruption, and a culture of lying—are apparent all around us. Celebrity Elitists ridicule our belief in God, sanctity of marriage, definition of life, the existence of evil, and the exceptionality of our culture. We must stand up and take sides in this Culture War, and Invasion Within is the blueprint for our victory:
*Insist that freedom and self-reliance are the lynchpins of American society. *Ensure that our children receive a traditional and disciplined education. *Be good role models as parents and as citizens. *Teach the moral of the story. *Spending the time to find solutions rather than labeling and drugging our children. *Pray to God to increase faith and hope in our future. *Say what we believe, not what is politically correct.
*Stop watching trash on television.
*Teach that character does matter. *Be patriotic to America’s ideals.
By following these steps we will defeat this invasion and become an even stronger nation.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great Book!,
By JayT (FL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Invasion Within: Overcoming the Elitists' Attack on Moral Values and the American Way (Hardcover)
Dr. Maglio hits the nail on the head in this book, and it's refreshing to see some common sense for a change in raising our kids. Thanks to so called experts like Dr. Spock, our kids are out of control in a world of permissive parenting and Dr. Maglio is leading the front against these silly ideologies. In his book, he describes these ideologies and how and when they came into existence. He argues this is a culture war based on Marxist ideals, and is threatening the very fabric of the family unit, and American way. The book is very easy to read and was a real eye opener for me. I look forward to more books in the future from Dr. Maglio.

O.K. but not great,

This review is from: Invasion Within: Overcoming the Elitists' Attack on Moral Values and the American Way (Hardcover)
Starts out really, really good but kind of bogs down after first couple of chapters. Still, the first chapters spell out the problem very well

A little hard hitting...but maybe it has to be.,
By E. A. Mourn (Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Invasion Within: Overcoming the Elitists' Attack on Moral Values and the American Way (Hardcover)
I agree with the majority of Dr. Maglio's views, especially those that are based on plain, old-fashioned common sense. Most of what he teaches at his school is about human nature, and the fact that children are little humans who have flaws, just as their parents do. It is our job, as parents, to make sure that we raise our children to be respectful, caring, and responsible adults. Many parents have abandoned this important premise, and someone openly pointing this out as a major problem is long overdue. I for one am glad he did it.
For those who don't know, Wider Horizons, which is the school he founded, is a wonderful place that welcomes people from all over the world, embracing differences, not shunning them. I know this first hand. As far as his ability as a writer goes, well, let me just say that he is not a bad writer at all, but he is much more impressive live, than on paper. I read the book and received, loud and clear, the message that he was trying to send. I feel sure that his over zealous tone, repetition in some areas, and word choices, are mainly due to his honest belief that he is fighting a culture war. He is indeed a cultural warrior, and I respect him immensely for having the courage for giving his all for what he believes.
