About the Author

With his debut novel, Things Forgotten, Thomas ambitiously tells the story of the Israelite Conquest of Canaan, as seen through the eyes of an Arab descendant of Israel's brother Esau. Together with his passion for ancient and biblical history, these are the themes which have shaped Thomas as a writer over the last two decades. His writing style is steeped in rich history and the essence of the human spirit, qualities that will surely linger with his readers. Thomas began his collaboration with Samuel J. Wurzelbacher shortly after the third and final 2008 Presidential Debate. From the time he and Joe The Plumber met up, he witnessed the events of the perpetual media blitz, the revelation of the Ohio State illegal violation of his privacy, Joe s initial bus tour for the McCain-Palin ticket, his meeting with Sarah Palin and Thomas accompanied Joe on John McCain s Straight Talk Express. Together with a penetrating writing style, Thomas eye witness perspective into the story of Joe The Plumber will paint a vivid and captivating portrayal of a regular every-day American who was unexpectedly swept into perhaps the most pivotal presidential election of our lifetime.

5.0 out of 5 stars Joe ain't no average American, March 2, 2009
By 
Gen. JC Christian, patriot (Tremonton, UT United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream (Hardcover)
RINO spinmeisters, aided and abetted by the liberal media, have promoted Joe the Plumber as being an everyman, the archetypical "average American." This book shatters that image.

Joe the Plumber is not the "average American." He's the "average conservative," and I thank God for that.

Last year, the "average American" elected an Harvard educated constitutional law professor to the presidency. Average conservatives knew better. They rallied behind Joe the Plumber and Sarah Palin, people like ourselves; people I proudly call "mediocre Americans."

And that's why Joe is still so immensely popular. He's angry, vicious, ignorant, and intellectually incurious. He's one of us, and like us, he didn't learn about public policy and international relations at a university or from books or journals; he learned everything he needed to know by tuning into Rush, Hannity, Savage, and Ingraham.

This is a great book, one every true conservative should buy, and more importantly, read. Yes, I know that sounds like a tall order, but it's an easy read. Joe uses one and two syllable words (many of them, written forms of various grunts) almost exclusively. If I have one complaint, it's that the publisher, Pearlgate, printed it in ink rather than crayon like the original manuscript. Other than that, I think it truly is the perfect book for the average conservative.

1.0 out of 5 stars I should have known better, February 26, 2009
This review is from: Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream (Hardcover)
I'm embarrassed to say that I actually purchased this book. It is pure garbage. As a staunch conservative, I wish he would just stop talking and GO AWAY. We're really not in need of anymore loons like Joe the Plumber. Please do not waste your money on this because I'm sure someone will be willing to give you theirs.

1.0 out of 5 stars Puleeeeeeeez!, February 26, 2009
This review is from: Joe the Plumber: Fighting for the American Dream (Hardcover)
Well, I thought I'd seen everything. No siree! This book is a complete joke! Someone brought it to the office and I took it home and read it. JTP should definitely stick with plumbing. His opinions are so childish and he doesn't waste any time boring the daylights out of you. All I can say is..............Stop this craziness, Joe, or whatever your name is, Puleeeeeeeeeez!
