Kurt Schlichter and Paul Gottfried provide an excellent exposure of the malevolence and moral bankruptcy of the Left in light of contemporary events. Upon first reading many naive persons might judge their accounts as exaggerated, hasty generalization, and overly inflammatory polemics.  They would be wrong. In the harsh and antiseptic light of history they are carefully constructed and precise statements of reflective opinion based on hard, incontrovertible facts. For discerning readers, here are intellectual resources which provide additional authoritative facts documented upon a long range historical basis: Fire in the Minds of Men: Origins of the Revolutionary Faith, by James H. Billington; Karl Marx: Communist as Religious Eschatologist, by Murray N. Rothbard; The Socialist Phenomenon, by Igor Shafarevich; Modernity Without Restraint: The Political Religions, The New Science of Politics, and Science, Politics, and Gnosticism, by Eric Voegelin; The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression, by Stephane Courtois, Nicolas Werth, Jean-Louis Panne, Andrzej Paczkowski, Karel Bartosek, and Jean-Louis Margolin; and The Gulag Archipelago: Volume 1, Volume 2, and Volume 3, by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.
