Praise for Bestselling DARK AGENDA: The War to Destroy Christian America by David Horowitz

"The Best Book on Politics for Christians in 2019." — The Stream.org

“One of the most intellectually compelling and rational defenses of Christianity’s role in America. A Delightfully readable explanation of how Christian principles were the bedrock of the American Revolution, and how the anti-American left has targeted Christians because of that." — Mike Huckabee, former Governor of Arkansas and Christian Minister 

"Read this disturbing but vital book." — Tucker Carlson, TV Host of Tucker Carlson Tonight 

"Exposes the intolerance of many atheists toward those who believe in God. As a Jewish agnostic, I think it is imperative that disbelievers not demonize believers and that believers not demonize disbelievers." — Alan Dershowitz, former Harvard Law Professor and noted academic, lawyer and civil libertarian 

"An eye-opening account of the left's sixty-year war against America’s Christian foundations. If you want to understand the political crisis our country is facing, read this book." Gary Bauer, former Reagan Chief Domestic Policy Adviser, former President of Family Research Council and former President American Values 

"David Horowitz has succinctly and wisely laid out the plans of the left to move our country away from the God given right of freedom to practice our faith as our founders envisioned" — Tom Coburn, for United States Senator and Senior Advisor to Convention of States Project 

“David Horowitz understands the attacks on Christianity better than any academic—he has been in the trenches of the Left and knows exactly what makes them tick. His keen eye, sharpened by his experiences, offers the reader a magnifying glass to see how and why these assaults are so vicious and so relentless. Thank God we have him on our side. — Bill Donohoe, President of Catholic League for Religious and Civil Rights 

"If you want to understand the Leftist, secularist war against Christianity and our First Amendment freedoms, you must read Dark Agenda. It will make you think, it will make you pray, and it will motivate you to action.” — Michael Youssef PhD, is the Founder and President of Leading The Way with Dr. Michael Youssef and author of The Third Jihad

"In Dark Agenda, Horowitz exposes the sloppy logic elitist bullies and leftist cranks employed to impose their eccentric agendas on America." — John Zmirak, Senior Editor of The Stream

Review

Praise for BLITZ: Trump Will Smash the Left and Win by David Horowitz

"'BLITZ, Trump Will Smash the Left and Win', by David Horowitz. Amazon #1 Bestseller. Hot book, great author!" — President Donald J. Trump

“David Horowitz has been rightfully standing up to crazy leftists for decades. If you’re interested in debating deranged liberals with facts, you won’t want to miss this latest book.” — Donald Trump, Jr.

“We love David Horowitz. He’s a former New York liberal raised by communist parents, saw the light one day, and has become one of us — and he’s got a new book called BLITZ: Trump Will Smash the Left and Win. He thinks Trump is gonna win in a landslide in November, and he gives reasons why in the book, and he says Republicans are gonna be singing “Happy Days Are Here Again” once November comes and the election is over and the votes are counted.” — Rush Limbaugh

“David Horowitz is one of the boldest and most brilliant thinkers and writers of our time. His latest blockbuster BLITZ spells out why Trump will be reelected and how it will put the left in a deep sink hole of their own making. A must read for those who want to better understand what is really happening in the ‘idea war’ for the soul of America.” — Governor Mike Huckabee

“David Horowitz has written an indispensable book —BLITZ—explaining why today’s Democrats are so dangerous and why President Trump is their nemesis.” — Mark R. Levin, New York Times bestselling author of Unfreedom of the Press

“David Horowitz has been at the center of our national conversations about politics and culture for more than fifty years. BLITZ is the latest must-read from Horowitz: insightful, hard-hitting, controversial, and uncompromising. Ignore him at your peril.” — Peter Schweizer, New York Times bestselling author of Clinton Cash and Profiles in Corruption

“This book is not simply a very, very good book. It is a great book. I rarely use that term, and I read a lot of books. This is the book your anti-Trump relatives and friends should read. It is a fact-based, highly-footnoted defense of Donald Trump as President of the United States—and it is as clear a moral indictment of the anti-Trump left as has been written. It also has the virtues of being as clear as water and as readable as a page-turning novel. Finally, it is written by David Horowitz whom I consider a modern-day prophet. Prophets hated evil and told the truth.” — Dennis Prager, President of PragerU and New York Times bestselling author

“David Horowitz is an icon and leader in the conservative movement whose books and writings have shaped conservative policies and thinking for decades. BLITZ: Trump Will Smash the Left and Win provides unparalleled insight into the current political climate and David’s expertise and experience give him a unique understanding of how we got here and what it means for 2020 elections.” — Sean Spicer, Host of Spicer & Co., Newsmax TV

“David Horowitz hits it perfectly in this book. Horowitz understands the left better than anyone else in America. He recognizes their malevolent goals and how to stop them. This is a must read book!” — Charlie Kirk, New York Times bestselling author of The MAGA Doctrine

“The definitive summing-up of Donald Trump’s efforts during the last three years to enact his “big agenda” — and of his enemies’ obsessive campaign to foil those efforts at every turn. More cogently than the work of any other commentator, David Horowitz’s book spells out the nature of Trump’s success as president and explains why his re-election is not just a desideratum but a world-historical necessity.” — American Thinker

BLITZ is the go-to recap of the first Trump term, from the first days of the so-called “Muslim ban” through a deconstruction of the “partisan impeachment,” as Horowitz labels it. BLITZ is a comprehensive reset at the end of the first Trump term. It is catalog of how we got here and how the Left have lost their minds over President Trump’s new way. Horowitz diagnoses the causes and effect of Trump Derangement Syndrome.  He also documents how Trump has thrived despite the unhinged hatred aimed at him. In BLITZ Horowitz catalogs where we are, and how we got here since election night 2016.  He inventories the fake scandals, the Democrat’s derangement, the sell-out of the American economy to China, and what really motivates Trump. The most fascinating part of BLITZ is Horowitz getting to the essence of what makes Trump unique, effective, and so unfamiliar to the political establishment. BLITZ is a sharp guide to where we are as a nation, and what we face this election. It is a handy inventory of the worst that has happened since election night 2016, and why it is that Trump has survived, all the while remaking the art of American politics. BLITZ leaves readers with the ‘Nine Biggest Dangers to America from the Anti-Trump Left.’” — PJ Media



Praise for New York Times Bestselling BIG AGENDA: President Trump's Plan to Save America by David Horowitz:

"Provides a clear assessment of the challenges the new president faces and a road map for a winning agenda." — Rush Limbaugh, host of The Rush Limbaugh Show (America's Anchorman) & recipient of the Presidential Medal of Freedom

"With trademark candor, Horowitz lays out a Trump agenda for restoring the country and sinking the ship of the left once and for all." — Dinesh D’Souza, New York Times Bestselling author of Hillary's America 

"Progressives have declared war on America and Donald Trump. Every conservative should arm themselves with this brilliant battle plan for beating them back and winning the war." — Ann Coulter, New York Times Bestselling author of Adios, America

"A compelling road map for Donald Trump — a must read for everyone concerned about the future of America." — Peter Schweizer, New York Times Bestselling author of Clinton Cash

"Trump was vilified like no other presidential candidate in history, yet he still defeated the Democrats… All Republicans should read it for the battle-cry it represents. High school and college students should also study it to understand both sides of the two political ideologues." — HuffPost

David Horowitz grew up a “red diaper baby” in a communist community in Sunnyside, Queens. He studied literature at Columbia, taking classes from Lionel Trilling, and became a "new leftist" during the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956. He did his graduate work in Chinese and English at the University of California, arriving in Berkeley in the fall of 1959. At Berkeley, he was a member of a group of radicals who in 1960 published one of the first New Left magazines, Root and Branch. In 1962 he published the first manifesto of the New Left, a book titled, Student, which described the decade’s first demonstrations.

Horowitz went to Sweden in the fall of 1962 where he began writing The Free World Colossus, his most influential leftist book. In the fall of 1963 he moved to England where he went to work for the Bertrand Russell Peace Foundation and became a protege of the Polish Marxist biographer of Trotsky, Issac Deutscher, and Ralph Miliband, an English Marxist whose sons went on to become leaders of the British Labour Party. While in England Horowitz also wrote Shakespeare: An Existential View, which was published by Tavistock Books. Under the influence of Deutscher, he also wrote Empire and Revolution: A Radical Interpretation of Contemporary History, 1969.

In 1967, Horowitz returned to the U.S. to join the staff of Ramparts Magazine, which had become a major cultural influence on the left. In 1969 he and Peter Collier, who became his lifelong friend and collaborator, took over the editorship of the magazine. Collier and Horowitz left Ramparts in 1973 to write three best selling dynastic biographies: The Rockefellers: An American Dynasty (1976); The Kennedys: An American Dream (1984); and The Fords: An American Epic (1987).

During these years Horowitz wrote two other books, The Fate of Midas, a collection of his Marxist essays and The First Frontier, a book about the creation of the United States. Following the murder of his friend Betty van Patter by the Black Panther Party in December 1972 and the victory of the Communists in Indo-China, which led to the slaughter of millions of Asians, Horowitz and Collier had second thoughts about their former comrades and commitments. In 1985 they published a cover story in the Washington Post called "Lefties for Reagan," announcing their new politics and organized a Second Thoughts Conference in Washington composed of former radicals. Four years later they published a book of the articles they had written about their new perspective and themovement they had left which they called Destructive Generation.

In 1997, Horowitz published a memoir, Radical Son(1996), about his journey from the left. George Gilder hailed it as “the first great autobiography of his generation,” and others compared the book to Whittaker Chambers' Witness.

In 1988, Horowitz and Collier created The Center for the Study of Popular Culture (the name was changed in 2006 to the David Horowitz Freedom Center) — to create a platform for his campaigns against the Left and its anti-American agendas. The DHFC is currently supported by over 100,000 individual contributors and publishes FrontpageMagazine.com, which features articles on “the war at home and abroad,” and receives approximately a million visitors per month. In 1992, Collier and Horowitz launched Heterodoxy, a print journal which confronted the phenomenon of "political correctness" focusing on the world of academia for the next ten years. In the same year he and film writer Lionel Chewynd created the "Wednesday Morning Club," the first sustained conservative presence in Hollywood in a generation. In 1996 Horowitz created the Restoration Weekend, which for the next two decades feature gatherings of leading conservative political, media and intellectual figures. In 2005 Horowitz created the website,DiscoverTheNetworks.org, an online encyclopedia of the political left, which has influenced the works of a generation of conservative journalists and authors.

With the support of the Center, Horowitz continued his writing about the nature and consequences of radical politics, writing more than a dozen books, including The Politics of Bad Faith (2000), Hating Whitey & Other Progressive Causes (2000), Left Illusions (2003), and The Party of Defeat (2008). His Art of Political War (2000) was described by Bush White House political strategist Karl Rove as “the perfect guide to winning on the political battlefield.” In 2004 he published Unholy Alliance, which was the first book about the tacit alliance between Islamo-fascists in the Middle East and secular radicals in the west.

Horowitz has devoted much of his attention over the past several years to the radicalization of the American university. In 2001 he conducted a national campaign on American campuses to oppose reparations for slavery 137 years after the fact as divisive and racist, since the since there were no longer any living slaves and reparations were to be paid and received on the basis of skin color). His book Uncivil Wars (2001) describes the campaign and was the first in a series of five books he would write about the state of higher education.

In 2003, he launched an academic freedom campaign to return the American university to traditional principles of open inquiry and to halt indoctrination in the classroom. To further these goals he devised an Academic Bill of Rights to ensure students access to more than one side of controversial issues and to protect their academic freedom. In 2006, Horowitz published The Professors (2006), a study of the political abuse of college classrooms. Indoctrination U., which followed in 2008, documented the controversies this book and his campaign had created. In 2009, he co-authored One Party Classroom with Jacob Laksin, a study of more than 150 college curricula designed as courses of indoctrination. In 2010, he published Reforming Our Universities, providing a detailed account of the entire campaign.

Along with these titles Horowitz wrote two philosophical meditations/memoirs on mortality, The End of Time (2005) and A Point in Time (2011), which summed up the themes of his life. A Cracking of the Heart (2009) is a poignant memoir of his daughter Sarah which explores these themes as well.

Many have commented on the lyrical style of these memoirs. The literary critic Stanley Fish, a political liberal, has described The End of Time as “Beautifully written, unflinching in its contemplation of the abyss, and yet finally hopeful in its acceptance of human finitude.”

In 2013 Horowitz began publishing a ten volume series of his collected journalistic writings and essays under the general title The Black Book of The American Left. The first volume, My Life & Times, was published in 2013; the second, Progressives, in 2014. The Black Book is filled with character and event—with profiles of radicals he knew (ranging from Huey Newton to Billy Ayers), analysis of the nature of progressivism, and running accounts of his efforts to oppose it. When completed, The Black Book will be a unique chronicle of the political wars between left and right as seen by an observer who has made a significant impact on both sides of the during his political and literary careers.

Cultural critic Camille Paglia has said of David Horowitz: “I respect the astute and rigorously unsentimental David Horowitz as one of America’s most original and courageous political analysts. . . . I think that, a century from now, cultural historians will find David Horowitz’s spiritual and political odyssey paradigmatic for our time.”

Norman Podhoretz, former editor of Commentary magazine, says of Horowitz: “David Horowitz is hated by the Left because he is not only an apostate but has been even more relentless and aggressive in attacking his former political allies than some of us who preceded him in what I once called ‘breaking ranks’ with that world. He has also taken the polemical and organizational techniques he learned in his days on the left, and figured out how to use them against the Left, whose vulnerabilities he knows in his bones.”
