| 1. |  | Why Are Jews Liberals? from Doubleday Price: $14.54 Customer Review:  Why are Jews Liberal? "Why is the Pope Catholic?" was my thought as I began the book. Mr. Podhoretz, in the rather academic, rabbinical tradition of arguing the ancient Torah, points out that most American Jews are nonpracticing and now live by the "Torah of Liberalism" without examining the reality... |

| 2. |  | World War IV: The Long Struggle Against Islamofascism (Vintage) from Vintage Price: $6.99 Customer Review:  Should be subtitled: There is no God but The United States of America, and W. is its prophet. |

| 3. |  | My Love Affair With America: The Cautionary Tale of a Cheerful Conservative Price: $8.15 Customer Review:  Norman Podhoretz, the wise, puckish sage of NAMBLA, has come out with a new collection of homespun wisdom. I don't necessarily agree with his suggestion that America put its defense department "in a blind trust" under the direction of Israel, although it is refreshing to hear a prominent Neo-Con... |

| 4. | [no image] | Why We Were in Vietnam from Simon & Schuster (Paper) Customer Review:  For those seeking a detailed account of the domestic (US) political history of Vietnam: this is your book. Podhoretz, an acclaimed editor, covers the political debate (or lack thereof) at each stage of the US involvement in Vietnam; from refusing to enter to help the French, to providing assistance... |

| 5. |  | Ex-Friends: Falling Out with Allen Ginsberg, Lionel and Diana Trilling, Lillian Hellman, Hannah Arendt and Norman Mailer from Free Press Price: $5.00 Customer Review: Norman Podhoretz was a New York intellectual in the 1950's-60's, once editor of Commentary magazine. A left-leaning writer then, in the early 70's he began leaning right and became one of the "founding fathers" of neoconservatism. He was an anti-Communist who rebelled against the anti-American bent... |

| 7. |  | The Prophets: Who They Were, What They Are from Free Press Price: $12.49 Customer Review: A remarkable literary achievement on the book of books. It is quite amazing how Norman Podhoretz guides you through the, for me, Old Testament, and makes you be at home in the prophets lives. Yet that is also because they live now: we should return to them at every sign of idolatry in the... |

| 8. | [no image] | Breaking Ranks: A Political Memoir (Harper Colophon Books; Cn816) from HarperCollins Publishers Customer Review: It takes guts to do what Norman Podhoretz did. He looked at Reality and saw that the liberal left political and social views of all his friends were mistaken. He saw that the knee-jerk condemnations of the United States which came from the left were wrongheaded, and in some ways contemptible. He had... |

| 11. | [no image] | Doings and undoings;: The fifties and after in American writing from Farrar, Straus Customer Review: The young Podhoretz at his debunking best is contained in these pieces. The way to make a reputation is the way to break a reputation seems to be a strong element here especially in his treatment of Bellow, Roth and Faulkner Still he writes with moral fervor and great intelligence. And he... |

| 12. | [no image] | Making It from Random House Customer Review: The poor self- educated Big City boy gets to Cambridge where he studies English under F.S. Leavis. Podhoretz describes the climb afterwards to 'make it' in American intellectual life. When he gets to 'Commentary' and gets to run the show he is instead of one looking out trying to get in, one on the... |

| 13. |  | The Norman Podhoretz Reader: A Selection of His Writings from the 1950s through the 1990s from Free Press Price: $16.53 Customer Review: I've never heard of this guy nor read his works, but in certain circles he is revered, perhaps because he switched sides. At best obscurantism; at worse literary criticism of the kind that engineers loath--that's why engineers hate the humanities. But again, I've not read Podhoretz. |

| 16. | [no image] | Breaking Ranks from Blackstone Audiobooks Price: $39.66 Customer Review: This tape is a must for every serious student of political science. BLUNTLY, the disturbing fact is that this tape reveals how an intellectual leftist insider could not "leave it all behind". Mr. Podhoretz trys to convince the listener that he has turned his back on his liberal past...but has he?... |
